Every morning when we get up, and every evening before bed, we have cuddles. And I just take a moment to appreciate our bond.

She has kept me going through some horrendous life experiences this year. And sometimes, those cuddles are the only time I have felt a little joy in my day.

It baffles me that some people tried to tell me to “send her back”, after meeting her in an unconventional environment for all of 10 minutes. It enrages me (though I try not to let it) that both she and I were judged on a weekend where I was at my most vulnerable, yet still showed up for something I was passionate about.

I made a choice. I chose to leave the toxicity behind and give my girl the best life I could. Maybe it doesn’t look the same as others, but we’re happy, and she is fulfilled, and I get to enjoy these little moments with her every single day 🥰

🦴 “The bite came out of nowhere!”

It is common to hear this from dog owners who have missed vital signs of canine communication.

Dogs speak volumes through body language and subtle communication— you just need to know how to read the signs! These body language cues can tell you whether your dog is relaxed, stressed, excited, or needs space. Learning to listen to their language can prevent things like dog bites and help you understand what your dog is trying to tell you🐕💬

✔️ How to spot signs of stress before they escalate
