What Dogs Have Taught Me
Sham, Laddie, Rough, Breeze, Lexie, Ellie
I have been honored to share my life with many dogs. Each time I loose one, I am heart sick, but grateful for the special lesson that unique soul helped me to learn.
Here are some of the lessons my cherished pups have helped me learn:
|

Trying hard is as important as achieving the goal |

Hanging out together is just as fun as earning pretty trophies |

Run as fast as you can whenever you can just to feel the wind in your hair |

When a most loyal dog shares your life, always remember to look before pushing out your chair lest you run over his tail (again). |
| Kael (his poem) | |
 |
Getting a late start in things has nothing to do with the quality of the outcome. |
| Lexie (her poem) | |
 |
Sometimes, it takes a long time to accept imperfection in ones self... especially that which causes such a disastrous outcome........I humbly ask for your forgiveness, my dearest one.... |
The dogs on this page have all made my life richer for their presence in my life. I thank each one for the experiences we shared. I still miss them, all.
