All God's Creatures Great and Small
I have always felt that dogs can see straight through to your soul. Their eyes hold so much knowing in them. They have such a sixth sense. I personally believe that our Buddy saved me. He knew what I needed when I didn't.
A couple of months ago, Boy, sometimes pronounced bow-wee, adopted us. I say that because we didn't go somewhere and pick him. He picked us. And now after time has passed I realize what an honor that was. This dog has endured more than any one dog should. His eyes reflect several lifetimes lived. He's been abused. His back was severely injured at one time and I don't think it was from an automobile. I've studied him and his behavior and I think it was from being badly beaten maybe as a pup. He is so untrusting of anyone or anything. It's taken months of coaxing to finally be able to pet him. That's why I say it's humbling that he has chosen us to trust. He is a very smart dog and very bright. I want him to know what love feels like. I want him to know that not everyone in the world is cruel. That there are those out there that appreciate God's creations.
