Ever consider a rescue dog or a mix?
“Ever consider a rescue dog or a mix?”
A lot of people have said that to me over the years, usually with a facial expression generally reserved for child molesters and democrats.
If I get another dog, it will be my last. I’d rather not spend my remaining time with the wrong dog.
I had to give up my Shepherd when I went in the military all those decades ago. There were decades when I could not have a dog because I lacked the space. Can’t keep one on a ship of the line, you know.
Now, finally, I have the space and the time, but—call me a curmudgeon if you like—the heart wants what the heart wants.
