For The Love Of Dogs

I have to take Prednisone for this illness I have. One of the side effects is insomnia. I am up just about all night and my dog is right beside me. She just looks at me like I'm nuts. I tell her to go to bed, but she won't. I even tried laying down with her, but the moment I stand up, so does she.
You're blessed with a faithful companion who loves you! 🌹

I’ve been taking some pics of my two year old McNab bitch, Ember in the car. Actually my wife Lia took most of these. Her favorite ways to ride are sitting behind me with her head between my window and my seat with chin resting on my back ..

.. but she also likes to be in the backseat between our two in front.

I’d like to have this next one as a stone gargoyle statue for the garden.

After a big walk with lots of ball work or zooming with buddies she will also snooze out back there.

Aren’t our dogs the best! Their loyalty is unparalleled ♥️

Today I adopted a human...
It broke my heart to see him so alone and confused. I suddenly saw his watery eyes as he looked into mine. So I barked with all my might and went after him, following from house to house. Finally, I got close enough to touch his hand with my nose. The man smiled and I felt his heart begin to warm. I moved closer to his face and felt his tears start to flow. I looked at him and he replied with a beautiful smile. I jumped into his lap excitedly, promising that I would be fine, that I would love him forever, and that I would never leave him. How fortunate that he passed by where I was and that we could meet like that. I felt lucky too.
So many people have been there, but only he, only he, stopped looked at me. I'm glad he made a choice and that I was able to save his life.
Today I adopted a human.

My two year old McNab Ember just got into a pre agility class at SF Dog Sports to start weekend after next. Woo hoo.

But we took her to Mendocino Coast botanical garden last Sunday and Monday she was hacking and coughing. Her first bout of Kennel Cough.

She has been so clingy and obviously not at all happy about being sick for the first time in her short life. She is on antibiotics which I give twice a day and a cough suppressant likewise. When I brought her upstairs to go back to bed with me early in the morning I let her sleep on my bed once I had the dog blankets ready.

She usually likes to sleep about a foot away at about my knee level. But here she kept burrowing into me with her head on my shoulder and her head under my beard.
