(My Own Pic)

Blue entered my life four years ago An eight week old puppy, fast he did grow Small bundle of fluff, blue eyes so bright The feeling I felt was love at first sight. I believe he chose me rather than I did he First time we met running clumsy to me Sniffing, rapid licking then tinkled a wee Instantly marked, life friends we would be. That night he was restless missing his kin Barking and crying, whine whimpering So I laid down next to his new puppy bed He snuggled up close nestling his head. Next morning awoke to licking wet kisses And puddles on paper where he did his business His tail madly wagging, happy, excited Instant bond growing, our love was ignited. Tales and adventures followed, years fast flew One day will share who choose to read through More to yet happen, explore and to chart But for now I will keep them close to my heart. 06.08.21

A dog isn't always a man's best friend, he is also a women's best friend too! Lovely poem Emilia, about you & Blue. Hope he is still bringing you much happiness :) Hope all is well. Hugs Charlie

Hello Emilia ... you couldn't ask for anything or anyone better than a dog as they never fail to give unconditional love - thank you Emilia - Lindsay

Thank you so much Lindsay and couldn't agree with you more. Is sad they are so misunderstood in some cultures, Emilia.

Thank you so much John. Our bond and friendship is very strong. The picture should of been bigger but for some reason came out small. Hugs, Emilia : )
