Our first dogs taught me about complete acceptance and love beyond all bounds. Rhody and Dandy were the constant joy factors
in our lives…ALWAYS happy to see us, ALWAYS by our side, ALWAYS there to remind
us we had a friend. I miss them.
Our next little guy, Tucker, taught me about comfort. He was there when Matt left for college and our
family went from 4 to 3 living under our roof.
Tucker was still with us when Kaitie went to college and we became empty
nesters at home. Although he barked a
lot and that got on our nerves, his barking was something I treasured when Tom
traveled and I was in the house alone at night.
Tucker was my consummate guard dog and sofa lapdog. I miss him.
Donald Hicks writes, “Those
who teach the most about humanity aren’t always humans”. I agree.
Dogs bring hope, loyalty, companionship and unbridled love to the
world.
It has been said that the day God made dogs, He just sat
down and smiled.
I think that is just about right.
Thanks for reading.
