2.12.12


Pup-a-lup-a-gus

I probably have way to many posts, nicknames, and pictures of my dog.  I'm probably only a t-shirt away from being THAT dog person...you know the ones.

Bella has a way of worming her way into peoples hearts.  Dane never wanted a dog, now he gushes over how cute she is.  My dad talks about how much she helped him recuperate after his surgery.  Even my mother in law went from smiling at Bella to calling her up to pet her.  

I truly believe that animals play an important part in our lives and maybe even speak to a deep part of our soul.  They teach us to be patient and share an unconditional love.  Studies show that simply petting an animal can help reduce our blood pressure and decrease stress.  While they do occasionally ruin our favorite sandals or cause a mess on the rug, animals bring us so much laughter and joy.  I can't imagine a life without them!

  1. Instead of being the crazy cat ladies, we can be the crazy dog ladies. I am not far away from that myself. :) Manda Panda
