Great Post Harry:
Of course I would enjoy it since I have two dogs. Lived all my life as a Cat person, but a couple of years ago I got myself a couple of dogs. Though my Scottie acts more like a cat than a dog. So here's one more for you:

This is the difference between a dog and a cat:

The dog looks up to you and says: "He feeds me, he pets me, he makes my bed, Wow, He must be God."

The cat looks up to you and says: "He feeds me, he pets me, he makes my bed, Wow, I must be God."

Thank you Harry ! Those are all wonderful quotes. It's no secret how I feel about animal companionship and the MANY MANY MANY benefits and blessings they can bring us. I don't know what I'd do with out them in my life.

Seriously, thouogh, the benefits of having a pet are so numerous, it's hard to describe. I've never understood people that can be happy without an animal companion around them, whether it be a big, stinky doggie or a cute whittle kitty. Here now, is a picture of my boys, Bert and Mr. Beable. Beable is the orange one. :smile: Bert weighs a whopping 27 pounds, and Beable is also a big guy weighing in at 17 pounds. They're my babies. <3
