quotes dogs man’s best friend

Who is this quote by? “A dog is a man’s best friend”?
I am basically wondering if you know who wrote this quote.
Thanks so much!
Two different quotes that both used it:
“The dog is man’s best friend.
He has a tail on one end.
Up in front he has teeth.
And four legs underneath.”
- Ogden Nash – An Introduction to Dogs
and:
“Outside of a dog, a book is a man’s best friend:
and inside a dog, it’s too dark to read.”
- Groucho Marx

I really like these dog quotes too! (They’re so much fun and say so much about our pups!)

“The great pleasure of a dog is that you may make
a fool of yourself with him and not only will he not scold you, but he will make a fool of himself too.”

(Actually I think when I do something dumb/silly my dog thinks its funny too!! I swear dogs can smile!)
“I talk to him when I’m lonesome like,
and I’m sure he understands.
When he looks at me so attentively,
and gently licks my hands;
Then he rubs his nose on my tailored clothes,
but I never say naught thereat,
For the good Lord knows I can buy more clothes,
but never a friend like that!”
– W. Dayton Wedgefarth
There is no psychiatrist in the world like a puppy licking your face.
