Same here. I used to be one of those cold souls that didn’t respect what they were either. Then got shanghaied with one. After a few months of suspicion both ways, I could out that there is far more going on in a dog’s head than we’ll ever know. They are good people and loyal to the end. That’s why God has us outlive them. They’d be more lost than us if it was the other way around.
Amen.
