Dogs

horses read our emotions, dogs read our minds

dogs know before we tell them, you can't keep secrets from them

i found a new home for buddy and rascal yesterday

a man in the meat department at the grocery store has a farm and kids who want big dogs

i feel as if I am betraying my two dear friends...

my wife called me one day 5 summers ago and said a puppy was found behind a dumpster at the drug store

i was putting fence post in the ground at the farm, and it was a brutally hot day

i told her to bring the little mongrel home

he was so small, solid red, now he is so big, (part mastiff)

my son and i went to the animal rescue the next day and found rascal a friend

we named him buddy, so small, now he is big too, (part retriever)

they have never been apart and i thank God they will stay together

this is a mercy for me as much as them

buddy is a little sharper than raz and i know he knows something is coming

he has a little worry in his eyes, even while wagging his tail

rascal just wants to ride in the truck

i hope they forget me soon
