It may seem strange but my wee dogs are my best friends.

I do know a lot of people but what i treasure the most is my two little dogs, they have been through all my heartache and anguish during the past 8 years, and now they are getting older I fear losing either of them, and little Diva especially is not too good at all.

Its not unusual that ones pets are the most important living things in ones life, for they are the dependables in this thing called life. A world full of jealousy and hate is something which is becoming more prominent as time goes by, but our pets are the only innocents which are left in the world we inhabit.

Over the years i have lost 5 little dogs and i still miss and mourn them all, but non more so than Billy and Eddie, they were unique.

It sounds like a puppy about now would be a good addition to your family. Dogs are man’s best friend…..there’s truth to those words.

YES! Spoil the little tyke! 🩵 When you decide, it’d be great to share which type you’ll be welcoming into your home.

I’ve had 4 cats and three dogs and loved each one. I can’t have either one anymore, but I would if I could. I even had a robot cat that purred and mewed and eyes lit up when I pet it. It walked, moved its tail and sat down. I loaned it to a friend when her cat died to comfort her. But dogs are a different kind of buddy and they would lay down their life for their owners and I definitely understand the attachment that secrets22 has with his buddies as I had with mine.

hello Isinatra.......you are correct, dogs are more human than many humans, and they would defend you if needed , their devotion is second to non, its very much an invisible thread that binds you to them and vice versa .

hey Mandy.......actually when the time comes and you are considering a dog, if you look for a small dog like a Chihuahua or Papillon ,they dont need much exercise, they prefer to be snuggled up close to you.x

At my birthday party the other week I had said about how many years ago we hadn't been allowed to have had fish and chips on a school trip after my father had said it was too late and a girl had cried saying how she liked the teacher who would have got us the chips if she had been in charge but not my father who was in charge!

My sister in law said how because the teacher who would have gone and got the chips was a mother herself it was because mothers like to keep the family happy and I had said you know all about being a mother don't you the way you keep Baby happy making sure she has her treats!

Another girl who was at my party is also a mother to a very spoilt beagle and makes sure as a mother her beagle is always happy with her spoils and said how my father was mean when he had said no one was getting fish and chips that night as it was too late!

Baby is 20 in April and that is down to her getting spoilt!

Oh spaniels are a beautiful breed, very loving and very protective, we had one as a child, her name was Pat, and an absolute joy.xx

But guess what my nickname was years ago 'Twink'

Dogs for god's and animals r all

Wee dogs are the best. I lost mine this past January and I was heartbroken. I didn't want anymore but got one that was the same breed. He has liven things up again for me. I'm glad I got him.

I have a mini schauzer. I lost my other mini in January. Looked for a dog. Got one, a golden doodle and ended up giving that to a relative and got another mini schnauzer, in which he'll be a year thus Sunday. ❤️

Years ago I worked at a call centre and the line manager had an extremely spoilt miniature schnauzer!

Schnauzer are my favorite. They keep me busy.
