We sat together for a while after Belker's death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal lives are shorter than human lives. Shane, the young son spoke up, "I know why",
he said, "people are born and live a long time to learn how to love others and be nice, right?" The four-year-old continued, "Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don't have to stay as long."
