@jc76 I know what you mean! Remember, "people who have pets, live longer and spend less time in hospitals."
Some seniors' homes are getting it and invite dogs to visit.

Shelters for endangered women are setting aside room(s) for pets. They discovered some women will not leave an abusive situation for fear that the pet will be abused. A friend of mine, was advised to take her dog with her if she left the matrimonial home at any time.
I'm off to walk around in the strata compound. It's not as interesting without little Miah. I bought these funny looking boots for her. They look like balloons! You use the container they come in to put them on. She literally danced in them. She loved them so much.

Have a great walk.

I sure enjoy posts that bring a smile to my face. Sounds like you have a great relationship with your dog as I do.

I am a patient at Mayo Jacksonville. Regretfully I have a lot of medical issues and I am there almost every week and sometime couple of times as week. They have the therapy dogs walking around campus.

When I see them I immediately break out in a smile. There is one (think lab/doodle) that comes to a specific building I go to. The first time I met him he laid his head on my leg and would not move. His parent said he loves coming here and meeting people. When I see him now I always go over to him and tell his parent thanks for volunteering.

I bought our some booties for my dog to wear when we go to beach. You have to walk a long way to get to the wet sand and sand until then is really hot. He tolerates them but I wish he loved them like yours.

I have a Life is Good T-shirt that I wear a lot. On the back says "Dog Dad." Be surprised how many people at Mayo and around my community tell me "I love your t-shirt." I have to stop at first and then say "Oh you mean dog dad in back."
