For those of you that may not understand why…….
It was my decision 🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾
🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾 I knew what I was getting myself into. Nobody made me, nobody put a gun to my head. I wanted it just like this. I knew I’d be tied down. Caring for them, feeding them, walking them. It doesn’t matter what the weather is or if I’m in the mood or not. I promised them that as long as they were with me I would give them everything, take care of them and when they are sick I would take them to the doctor. They are my babies. ❤️
🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾 I knew my wallet would be tighter, my clothes would be covered in dog hair, and my stuff could be ruined, but that was the choice that I made. Not saying it’s always been that way, but it’s worth it.
🐾❤️🐾❤️🎉 I can never be mad at them; damaged items can be replaced, carpets can be cleaned, and my clothes can be washed. What can’t be replaced, however, are those sparkling eyes that are so happy to see me when I come home as they fall all over jumping on me. 🥰 It doesn’t matter if I’m gone for 5 mins or 5 hours. Their affection and unconditional love are irreplaceable. ❤️
🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾 There are times that they feel my sadness or hear me cry. They come poking me with their cold noses and licking me with their slobbery tongues. Always making me 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 I 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 me resting. We may have to go more often to the doctor. I may have to clean up accidents more often.
🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾 I wanted this when I decided to bring them into my life, I 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 I regret. I took charge of them when I took them in until the day I have to let them go. 😪
🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾 My dogs will never have a new owner. My dogs will never end up in a rescue or at a shelter, unless I’m dead.
🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾 I’m not moving if they can’t come with me!!! The person who would make me give them up isn’t born yet, and never will be.
🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾 They are part of my life, part of my family and with me they will stay!!! I have taken over this responsibility from their first to their last day with me. 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.
