“Dogs lives are short, too short, but you know that going in. You know the pain is coming, you’re going to lose a dog, and there’s going to be great anguish, so you live fully in the moment with her, never fail to share her joy or delight in her innocence, because you can’t support the illusion that a dog can be your lifelong companion. There’s such beauty in the hard honesty of that, in accepting and giving love while always aware that it comes with an unbearable price. Maybe loving dogs is a way we do penance for all the other illusions we allow ourselves and the mistakes we make because of those illusions.” – Dean Koontz
Taking in Seniors doesn’t give you a lot of time together. That’s true. BUT . . .their souls are so grateful and they are such blessings to get to know no matter how much time you have left to share!!
When they come to us and finally realize they’re safe, they become pups again; enjoying the life, love and security they were always meant and entitled to have.
Here’s just a sampling of the joy they’ve brought into our lives and, hopefully a glimpse of what we’ve been able to contribute to theirs.
