An inseparable bond already

It’s hard to know what has happened to these little creatures in their travels; we have discovered that some things upset Cocoa and are working to ensure she always feels safe and over time she will hopefully feel confident with every new situation she encounters.  We are grateful that the universe sent Cocoa our way and it is our promise that she’ll be safe and happy forever.

The first weekend Artie spent with me, I realized I was falling for him.

His transparent expressions of love reminded me of the dog we had just lost for he too had decided early on that I was his person.  Artie is an amazing dog, full of energy and fun and so much love.  Perhaps he knows he has been given a second chance.  Perhaps he appreciates that these humans will go to the ends of the earth to figure out what plagues him and fix it for him.  What I’m sure he doesn’t know, is that while I thought I was saving him, he has been saving me.  Isn’t that what the best dogs do?
