Does Your Dog Always Make Everything Better No Matter What? {Photos} ~ Jennifer Spesia

I have gone through some seriously awful life “stuff” this year, and most of it has been over the last four months.

There have been days I haven’t wanted to get out of bed, let alone leave the house. There have been days I have honestly wondered if I’m even going to survive all of this.
But when I walk in the door and my dogs come charging at me, with toys in their mouths (gifts for my super exciting arrival!), tails wagging enthusiastically and kisses and love galore, it is absolutely impossible to be sad any longer.
When I walk in the door, they make me feel like my being there is, without a doubt, the very best thing that’s ever happened to them. The unconditional love only dogs (and kids, according to Mark Twain) can provide has the most magical healing powers.
In those moments when my heart is breaking and I wonder if it’s ever going to be okay again…my dogs are there, and they make everything better in a mere instant.

Do your dogs always make your day better too?

“Dogs have given us their absolute all. We are the center of their universe. We are the focus of their love and faith and trust. They serve us in return for scraps. It is without a doubt the best deal man has ever made. ” ~ Roger Caras
