Animals are awesome ❤️
The thing is, your dog knows when you’re sad, even when you try to hide it. They sense it in the way you move, in the quiet moments when your energy shifts. You don’t have to say a word; they pick up on it like it’s second nature. And when they know, they don’t ask questions, don’t push you to explain. They just come closer, sit beside you, and offer their presence.
It’s not about fixing anything, they know they can’t.
It’s about letting you know you’re not alone, that in their simple, unwavering way, they’re there for you.
Whether it’s resting their head on your lap or just sitting in the same room, your dog is tuned in to the things you think you’re keeping to yourself.
They know, and they stay, without expecting anything in return. It’s their way of loving you when you don’t have the words.
