Non-pet owners do not understand our pets. A few years ago I was on some medicine that was making me very depressed. I would often cry without knowing why I was crying. My beautiful little Maggie (my black Schnauzer) would always snuggle with me. She doesn't give kisses, but she nuzzles and they are the best! Maggie is a retired breeder and she definitely is a nuturing soul. She nuzzled me through a long, depressing summer.
