I thought, hmm, how can I begin to give back? I was given this marvelous gift, Bailey, the black Shar Pei. She is teaching me to trust, actually we are learning together. Beau, the tan boy, came to join us about six weeks ago when I had the first aneurysym surgery. He is teaching both Bailey and I to play and to love. Again, I gave very little...and gained all. Biking and these two wonderful souls make life whole again. Thank you all for joining me in the journey.
I wasn't aware of your journey, but I'm glad this place is giving you a source of comfort. I know it did for me when I lost my dog. I had been a member earlier but didn't participate much. But in time of grief, I needed to reach out to kindered souls and I found them here.

Aren't animal amazing in their capacity to teach? I'm really happy you've found your precious friends.
