"He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion." - Author Unknown
I found this quote online today about your dog. I've been reminded lately how much pets are a part of our families, and how much a piece of your heart they have.
I grew up with dogs, they were always part of the family, and as soon as Guinness came into my life, he immediately fit in as a family member. He thinks he's a human, he tells you what he's whining about, he sleeps in our bed, he gives kisses when Mommy or Daddy are happy or sad...and more recently, he likes to sleep with his head on a pillow, under the covers.
That story is quite funny. One morning, my dear husbands alarm was going off, and he had hit snooze a couple times...Guinness had gotten out of bed, and stood next to Sean's side of the bed and whined a bit. Sean, of course, thought that he needed to go outside...so the second he got out of bed (and thankfully turned the alarm clock off) Guinness jumped right back in the bed, and laid down. Head on the pillow, and looked at Sean, as if to say "cover me up, Daddy!! It's cold!!!) Sean nudged me (still sleeping, of course), and said..."Look at him...he's a person!!"
Ooops...I should go let my little boy in...he's barking at the neighbors!!!
