I went out to "my rock" the other day in the wilderness and sat down and thought about things. I realized that I have learned different important things from each dog I've had.
I was afraid of dogs from being attacked twice as a child and when I met my husband, he had a dog. Her name was Bridget.
Bridget taught me about the unconditional love a dog gives and not to be afraid of these gentle souls.
From Brandi, (alpha female) I learned self confidence, independance.
From Baxter, (my babysitter who took care of scared strays), I learned love and nurturing, to put others before myself.
From Wolfie, who was abused and can be shy at times, I learned not to automatically trust everyone (which I usually do) and to be cautious.
All important lessons, thanks to the angels God has sent me to guide me through life. I am so lucky.
