For those of you that may not understand why…….
It was our decision. 🖤 💛 🤎
We knew what we were getting ourselves into. Nobody made us, nobody put a gun to our heads. We wanted it just like this. We knew we’d be tied down. Caring for them, feeding them, walking them. It doesn’t matter what the weather is or if we're in the mood or not. We promised them that as long as they were with us we would give them everything, take care of them and when they are sick we would take them to the doctor. They are our babies. 💛 🖤 🤎
We knew our wallets would be tighter, our clothes would be covered in dog hair, and our stuff could be ruined, but that was the choice that we made. Not saying it’s always been that way but it’s worth it.
We can never be mad at them.
Damaged items can be replaced, carpets can be cleaned, and our clothes can be washed. What can’t be replaced, however, are those sparkling eyes that are so happy to see us when we come home as they fall all over jumping on us. 🥰 It doesn’t matter if we're gone for 5 mins or 5 hours. Their affection and unconditional love are irreplaceable. 💛 🖤 🤎
There are times that they feel our sadness or hear us cry. They come poking us with their cold noses and licking us with their slobbery tongues. Always making us laugh and feel loved, immediately ❤️
You don’t even notice the years fly by. Eventually their faces turn grey, movement slows down, they no longer are able to jump when we get home but the excitement is still the same.❤️
Then one day the light starts to fade from their sparkling eyes, they stop going for long walks, they sleep a lot more, and their days are spent laying next to us resting. We may have to go more often to the doctor. We may have to clean up accidents more often.
We wanted this when we decided to bring them into our life, We wanted their childhood, their youth and their old age with all of it’s beauties, happy moments and even their worst days with all it’s pain. There is not a single moment that we regret. We took charge of them when we took them in until the day we have to let them go. 😪🌈
❤️🐾We're not moving if they can’t come with us!!! The person who would make us give them up isn’t born yet and never will be.
❤️🐾They are part of our life, part of our family and with us they will stay!!! We have taken over this responsibility from their first to their last day with us. Until Death do us part!!! 💛 🖤 🤎
If you feel the same, post it with your own dogs. The more people this reaches the better. Who knows, it just might make a difference.💛 🖤 🤎
