DOGS ARE THERE

One thing I love about the dogs is that they are there for us.  They are truly there.  I am usually home all day with them while Daddy works and I can go through a wide variety of emotions through the day.  I am still in awe by their generosity and unconditional love.  How they want to be so much a part of our worlds and into everything I do.  Their silly and touching moments to make me smile.  Their ingenious games that test my wits and make me laugh.  They cuddle when I need someone to hold, even at times when I may not realize I need it.  They soak up my tears and always, always understand.

Each dog has many unique qualities they have taught me how to help express my feelings.  Here are some of my favorites:  When I'm feeling angry, Brut and I play fight, challenging each other.  When I need to be nurtured, Silver suddenly appears.  Fiona bumps the palm of my hand or thigh with her nose when I have done something that really makes her happy.  Chance always plops down right next to me when I need someone close.  Blaze lets me nurture her by giving her kisses on the forehead.  Zappa makes me feel special when he claims my lap, because he's Daddy's dog. 

I am still amazed by how they respond to me and how they always seem to know what I am feeling and what I need.  They are in tune with me and usually know my needs before I do.  My list of favorite things about each dog, doesn't begin to slice the surface of the many things they do and mean to me.  The gifts they give are endless, that's why it's called unconditional love.

I totally agree with this post... nothing beats the unconditional love of a pup. :)

Also, for some reason your wall of dogs reminded me of the Brady Bunch. hehe.

That is special to hear about how different dogs respond to you in different ways. I'm glad you have a dog (or two) for every mood and need!

They truly ARE the definition of unconditional love. Human really can learn a lot from them if only some of them were smart enough to know the beauty of it when they see it.
