Dogs and Beer, proof God loves us...
“Every dog must have a soul, somewhere deep inside
Where all his hurts and grievances are buried with his pride.
Where he decides the good and bad, the wrong way from the right,
And where his judgement carefully is hidden from our sight.
A dog must have a secret place, where every thought abides,
A sort of close acquaintance that he trusts in and confides.
And when accused unjustly for himself, He cannot speak,
Rebuked, He finds within his soul, the comfort he must seek.
He’ll love, tho’he is unloved, and he’ll serve tho’badly used,
And one kind word will wipe away the times when he’s abused.
Altho’ his heart may break in two, his love will still be whole,
Because God gave to every dog an understanding Soul!”

Thanks a bunch; you just had to wake up old Tuffy and Rowly and Pearl and Blondie and all the others, didn’t you.
Guess it’s just a good thing I have Jack, Sophie, George, Honey, Penny, Rosie and Billy to share those memories and all those walks with today.
Blurry screen.
Tears are running down my face. Our Angel went over that Rainbow Bridge 3 weeks ago at the ripe old age of 16. She is sleeping in my heart forever and she really was that good dog that was written about from the day we brought her home about 6 weeks of age. Thank you.
Cats, too. My Beanie Cat was put down last week, age 20. A very good cat through tough times and good. Never complained. Never any trouble. Always a friend. He just wore out.
Just happened on this thread. I lost my 13 year old Doberman on Monday and my heart is broken. She was the best dog I have ever had. Thanks for posting this piece, it is a consolation.
