That's why it is so important for animals and children to have both a male & female in the family. We both give differently and the outcome is a very happy, well-adjusted individual (whether it be human or of the animal species). I SOOOOO Love this post.

Now he lives 30 minutes away with wife, baby, and other dogs. So Sally has become closer to me, although age is separating her a bit from everything. But when he comes home, she doesn't seem to mind the other dog scent and he cuddles her like they both were children again.Bagman and Butlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06760203276065466927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7740230132498814658.post-69734818621523693242009-02-28T06:42:00.000-05:002009-02-28T06:42:00.000-05:00A lovely post, a joy to read!

It's called The Art of Racing In The Rain by Garth Stein. It is so touching, a novel looking back on the life of a dog and his beloved family and everything they have been through. But it is told completely through the dog's eyes, mind, point of view. The author did an amazing job crafting this story, I think you'd really be moved by it.Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03972054718663959694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7740230132498814658.post-85968692364977396212009-02-27T22:15:00.000-05:002009-02-27T22:15:00.000-05:00It is so nice to share ones love with another.
