PASSION IN A FURRY BROWN AND WHITE SLOBBER PACKAGE
Dogs are man's best friend. Whoever wrote this is genius. Just look into those soulful eyes and you will fall instantly. If not, then perhaps you better question whether you have a soul. If you were to ask any of my friends what I was passionate about, they would respond with one or all three of these; football, dogs, or education. I was drawn to dogs at an early age. My earliest memory is of my mom knocking on someone's door and me putting my face up to the screen as a Doberman Pincher looked out from the inside. She scolded me for being fearless and said if that dog had been mean, it could have bitten me. A mean dog? Humans are inherently mean. Dogs are just instinctual animals that can turn mean if mistreated. We were raised with German Shepherds, another breed that has a bad reputation like Dobermans. Friends and cousins alike were deathly afraid of these dogs. Not once were we ever bitten or growled at, and I would not have wanted to be the person who posed a threat to their tiny humans. There is a reason dogs have short lives. They are better beings than humans.

With a Little Help
ThunderCat was so cute in the local shelter’s Facebook post. I’m always a sucker for old dogs, and my local shelter was looking for a fospice for an older shih tzu mix. She was in good health, but couldn’t be adopted out because she wasn’t spayed, and she couldn’t be spayed because she had a terrible heart murmur. She needed a home full of love and care until the end of her days, and I was happy to do it.

A handsome, but extremely noisy 15 week old pup serenades me as I sit down in an attempt to put my thoughts on paper, or electric medium as the case may be. What am I passionate about? I live in rural Georgia in a county larger than Rhode Island that only five weeks ago had the first animal control and shelter put in place.
