Why do dogs live less than people?

Question: Why do dogs live less than people?
Here's the answer:
A veterinarian was called in to examine a 13-year-old dog named Batuta.
The family was hoping for a miracle.
I examined Batuta and discovered that he was dying of cancer and there was nothing I could do....
Batuta was surrounded by his family.
The boy Pedro looked so peaceful, petting the dog for the last time, and I wondered if he understood what was happening. In a few minutes, Batuta fell peacefully into a sleep never to wake up again.
The child seemed to accept it without difficulty.
I heard the mom wondering ;- Why is the life of dogs shorter than that of humans?
Peter said, ′′ I know why."
The boy's explanation changed my way of looking at life.
He said :-" People come into the world to learn how to live a good life, how to love others all the time and be a good person, eh?! Since dogs are already born knowing how to do all this, they don't have to live for as long as us." Got it?
Moral of the story:
If a dog were your teacher, you would learn things like:
* When your loved ones come home, always run to greet them.
* Never pass up the opportunity to go for a walk.
* Let the experience of fresh air and wind in your face be pure ecstasy!
* Take naps, rest.
* Stretch well before getting up.
* Run, jump and play daily.
* Avoid ′′ biting ′′ when just a growl would suffice.
* In very hot weather, drink plenty of water and lie down under the shade of a leafy tree.
* When you are happy, dance by moving your whole body.
* Enjoy the simple things, a long walk.
* Be faithful.
* Never pretend to be something you are not. Be authentic!
* If what you want, is ′′buried ", look for it, persist until you find it.
* And never forget:
When someone is having a bad day, be quiet, sit close and gently make them feel you are there.
