When something outside of your sphere needs you unconditionally it gets you out of your selfishness. My son decided it was time to bring a puppy home and with as much added stress it has added to the house, there is a wonderful joy and energy.
I’ve always known a dog changes the atmosphere in a house. I’ve noticed after raising children that as you adjust to a lack of being constantly needed, you fall back to a tendency of being selfish. Not selfish in the normal sense, just in the sense of time, energy and quiet.
Now I have this little puppy that watches me all day and is ready to play at any given moment. He continues to show me the simplicity of finding a rock or a stick or listening to a bird. I have sacrificed time and attention and he has already rewarded me with more than I know.
My son has a knack for timing. The puppy has a knack for playing and seeing life as a wonderful playground of sounds, smells and things to chew. I could learn a lot from them both.
OH MY GOODNESS, he or she is a cutie pie. They do look similar. Mine is a Australian Shepherd/doberman.
beautiful pictures of your puppy
Thanks Branka, he is just so irresistable-it’s been a while since I had the same energy in the house.
And a beautiful puppy he is. Your son did well. He knew what hid Dad needed.
May he bring you joy as I know he will.
Yes, he always seems to give me what I don’t know I need. I am blessed.
Animals are like that, enjoy the moments! You are definitely blessed my friend.
