Patsy, my dog keeps me happy all the time. I only have to look at her and I smile. I call her my dog as I trained her, but in reality, she belongs to the facility I live in. I'll be transferring to a new facility next month and the dog must stay here. This is really killing me. She has fallen in love with my son as well, and we have tried every which way and 6 times on Sunday to arrange to adopt her, but no go. They say to me, "where would we get another dog as good as she is?" She was a rescue and a handful when we got her, but I've always owned dogs, so I worked very assiduously with her. She rarely leaves my side and is absolutely bereft when I go to visit my son for a long visit. Right now, she is in my suite and asleep at my feet.
In a day when social acceptance largely depends on how our maladies are alike, I’m sure there are those who are depressed just to know that they are not as depressed as the depressed folks with whom they wish to be accepted by.
Outside of a dog, a book is man’s best friend. Inside of a dog, it’s too dark to read. “Groucho Marx” In ancient times cats were worshipped as gods......and they haven’t forgotten it!
That is so awesome. She knows and feels the love you have for her, and vice versa, her love for you..
When training a dog, one must be firm but kind. Discipline can be carried out in a kind manner. My dogs become extremely loyal to me as I allow it. However, Marley the sweetest dog ever. Wonderful disoposition,
