dog
It's no coincidence that a dog is a man's best friend; they're more faithful than most other animals, and more faithful than many people.
My Dog Just Died...
my dog just died. I'm feeling sick to my stomach. I guess I'm not as prepared for finality of the ‘end' as I thought I'd be. Just a foreigner in the land of emotion. It’s been so long since anyone I've truly cared about has passed away and I seem to have become desensitized to the whole experience. The news, in movies or the world in general has left me flippant. People die every day, but I didn't know any of them personally so how can I be expected to mourn. I feel like a robot most of the time, but we all get reminders that we are human, and man do they hurt.

Otis
Without a doubt, Otis was a once-in-a-lifetime dog. When he came into our lives, our older dog, Hondo, was beginning to slow down. My husband argued that getting a younger dog might be good for him-- help keep him active-- but I wasn’t completely on board. Hondo had always been a lone soul. Besides, getting a new dog was bound to be a lot of work. However, when my mother-in-law needed surgery 400 miles away, my husband made the trip to be with her. When he returned, he surprised me with a bright-eyed little border collie. He says there was an animal shelter not far from the hospital, and well, he had a little down time. Since it was my birthday, he reasoned that Otis was my special gift, and I didn’t have time to be upset, because I took one look at his golden brown eyes and fell in love immediately.

Our Messed Up Pets
Not long after we adopted the poodle, Sugar, my younger daughter had a Labradoodle generously given to her by another family in 4-H. Honey had been the runt of the litter and had some hip and leg problems, but he was absolutely amazing. It was the second time that my daughter had happened upon a pet that was practically perfect for her. Sugar also became chummy with the new guy. They developed a 'Bert and Ernie' type friendship that lasted for over a decade.

You've Got Gordon Mail!
I spent my entire life wanting a dog of my own, but it wasn't until my husband and I bought our first house two years ago that we were finally able to welcome one into our lives. From the moment I laid eyes on him, I knew Gordon was going to be a special dog. He has the sweetest personality and the most contagious happy attitude—it’s hard to be in a bad mood when he is around. He has a way of bringing smiles of joy to everyone he meets. Gordon has quite literally been an answer to my many, many years of prayers.
