Spottyed Snuggles#139 Moment

“The dog lives for the day, the hour, even the moment.”

~Robert F. Scott

 The Bandit loved performing his famous “leap and dive, barrel roll, squirm on his back”

on a regular basis after my DH passed away as he knew it always cheered me up!

He taught me to appreciate the moment as you may never have that chance again.

Miss CookiesNCream sure made an impact on my life.

She was my first dog, who was a major influence of who I am today.

I’m not sure if she was the happier of the two.

Have you had a dog who’s affected you in this way?

Spottyed Snuggles #137 Friend

 

“The one absolutely unselfish friend that man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him, the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous, is his dog.”
– George Graham Vest

The Bandit and Miss CookiesNCream.

They were waiting at the top of the stairs for our special twice daily time together.

This was taken in 2003, while I was in the process of adjusting to life as a widow.

This beautiful quote sums up how I cherish that friendship between us.

Hope you’ll hug your friend for me and my Spottyed Angels.

I am thankful and blessed to have had La Petite Grande Dame Cherie in my life.

She was exactly what I needed and didn’t know it at the time.

I think you can see by these images, the feeling was mutual.

How could I ask them to move when they gave me these looks?

They were waiting for me to join them for a Spottyed Snuggle!
