Dogs do not make resolutions because they do not need to become better versions of themselves. They already know how to live with attention, loyalty, restraint, and an unembarrassed capacity for joy. Humans, however, tend to complicate all of this.Dog-Approved Resolutions for 2026 offers one hundred resolutions written from a dog's point of view-observant, affectionate, quietly honest, and free of judgment. These are not motivational slogans or productivity hacks. They are small, steady reminders about presence, boundaries, rest, love, and the wisdom of not taking everything so personally.This book does not ask you to fix yourself.It asks you to pay attention.Through humor and calm insight, it explores what dogs already practice every day: forgiving without keeping score, resting without guilt, noticing patterns instead of promises, staying when it matters, and leaving when it does not. Dogs do not judge their people-not when they are wrong, not when they are struggling, not even when they are difficult. They distinguish between behavior and being, something humans often forget how to do.Written for readers who feel overwhelmed by constant self-improvement and tired of overthinking their way through life, this book offers an alternative rhythm-slower, kinder, and surprisingly effective.This is a book for: readers who want gentler resolutions for the new year;people who love dogs but also love clear thinking;anyone who suspects that wisdom does not need to be loud;those who want a book they can return to throughout the year, not just in January.Quiet, reflective, and quietly funny, Dog-Approved Resolutions for 2026 is meant to be read slowly, revisited often, and kept close.Your dog already lives this way.You are welcome to join them.
