Do you ever just look at your dog and say, "How did I get so lucky?"
Do you ever think, "Someone was crazy to give this dog up?"
Do you ever feel like you could just explode with the love you have for your dog?
I know I do.
Does your dog ever look up at you and say, "I love you!" with those big glorious eyes?
Does your dog ever just heave a great contented sigh as he drools on your favorite mohair sweater while you snuggle on the couch?
Does he ever wag his tail so hard when you come home that it looks like he could start a tornado?
Mine does.
Sometimes when I think of how long Beau spent in the rescue, I want to cry. They say he's two years old, and in rescue since February. We adopted him in October. He was just a pup, really, when he was left by his first family. I am so, so glad that the people at that Basset Rescue were able to take him, to love him for us until we could get him. We haven't even had him a whole month and already, I couldn't picture life without my beautiful Beau. Now whenever I have a spare $5 I'm going to stash it to send to them, so the rescue can love more dogs for their forever families, until they can find them.
Just wanted to say that since Beau is making me feel all warm and fuzzy tonight. Fuzzy because he's shedding on me, and warm because well, he's better than a heating pad!
