Spottyed Snuggles #141 Moment

“There is never a time or place for true love.

It happens accidentally,

in a heartbeat, in a single flashing, throbbing moment.”
― Sarah Dessen, The Truth About Forever

Miss CookiesNCream

 Miss CookiesNCream will always be my heart dog.

She was there for me from the moment I set eyes on her

until she departed this world.

I am thankful for all the lessons I have learned

from her being in my life for thirteen years.

For that, I will be forever grateful.

Do you have or have had a dog

who captured your heart the way she did for me?

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?

La Petite Grande Dame Cherie

I am most humbled that all three gave their hearts to me in their own special way.

I’m to understand that this month’s Blog Paws theme is about Spoiling Our Pets.

Miss CookiesNCream, The Bandit and La Petite Grande Dame Cherie

were referred to as my Spoiled Spotts.

As you can see by these images, they lived up to that name.

One of the many lessons in life I have learned is that

I truly believe that they were in heaven being with me just as much as it felt to me.

“Blessed is the person who has earned the love of an old dog.”

– Sydney Jeanne Seward

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.

Spottyed Snuggles #126 Scent

“Questers of the truth, that’s who dogs are;

seekers after the invisible scent of another being’s authentic core.”

― Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson

Miss CookiesNCream

This was taken a couple days after The Bandit was sent OTRB 06/2008.

While she was happy to have me all to herself again,

she truly missed her brofur.

As you can see, she was on an quest to capture his scent.

Spottyed Snuggles #125 Move

“If you want the best seat in the house … move the dog.”

~Unknown

Miss CookiesNCream on the left, snuggled with The Bandit on the loveseat.

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!

Miss CookiesNCream

“When was the last time someone was so overjoyed to see you, so brimming with love and affection that they literally ran to greet you? A dog will do that for you–ten, twenty, thirty times a day.”
― Lionel Fisher

Miss CookiesNCream and The Bandit

always greeted me at the door

everyday of their lives

whether I was gone for five minutes or five hours!

Spottyed Snuggles #122 Grateful

 

“A dog is grateful for what is,

which I am finding to be

the soundest kind of wisdom and very good theology.” 

 – Carrie Newcomer

Although Cherie (La Petite Grande Dame Cherie)  lived with me for just a short time,

this daily beautiful smile of hers spoke volumes of how grateful she was!

(WordPress just reminded me that this is A Spottyed View’s 200th post!)
