“Until we have the courage to recognize cruelty for what it is... we cannot expect things to be much better in this world... We cannot have peace among men whose hearts delight in killing any living creature. By every act that glorifies or even tolerates such moronic delight in killing we set back the progress of humanity.”  ― Rachel Carson

When she is happy to see you (always), she wags her whole rear end.  She's waiting to show you how great she'll fit in with your family.
