dog
It's no coincidence that a dog is a man's best friend; they're more faithful than most other animals, and more faithful than many people.
Good Karma
I think we can all agree: puppies + mental health = good for you. Naturally, those of us that realized this during the peak of the pandemic, made the quick decision to get our beloved four-legged friends as the world was crumbling down around us.

After we euthanized Jezzie, our seventy-pound Australian Shepherd, adopted nine years earlier, my husband Ralph decided he wanted another Aussie. I found one online at the Wenatchee, Washington no-kill shelter. We drove from Lakewood, Washington across the mountains to see her in person.

Oza was part German Shepard, part Lab, maybe a pit bull. Whatever she was after she had gotten pregnant, she was discarded. She was taken to the Humane Society with her belly full of pups. She had given birth to 9 pups. All pups were beautiful and healthy. It's just that Oza's previous owner could not handle keeping any of the pups and was angry at Oza for engaging in fornication on her front lawn. The pit bull had jumped on her and pinned around Oza's haunches.

There’s nothing comparable to the bond of a human and a canine companion. Felines are okay, but there’s just something about overly-excited tail wagging and super slobbery kisses that makes you feel right at home.

On July 25th, 2021, my emotions were all over the place. I have always wanted an English bulldog. Today, my want would be

Every morning I wake up in a house overlooking 500 acres of central Texas land that I manage called Valkyrie Ranch. As I drink my coffee and look outside, I see something different every day. This land is an exotic game ranch dedicated to preserving various types of animals that would otherwise be extinct (or heading in that direction) in their natural habitat, such as Piere-Davids, blackbuck, oryx, wildebeest, fallow, etc. Most of them roam freely around the property; some are in their enclosures - for their safety and ours. Working with them can be one of the most rewarding occupations, but it can also be one of the most heartbreaking.

I...don't really remember my dog that much. I've had a couple over the years, but unfortunately, they've either died or run away.

I have always been an anxious and depressed mess. On my first day of work as a teenager, I had such a horrific panic attack that I passed out, hit my head and woke up covered in deli meats. I was nervous about deli meats. Then I was depressed that I was nervous about deli meats. It’s a cycle that’s very hard to break. And I had done a pretty good job of handling it for the next 15 years. Until March 2020.

I never expected to love anything as much as I did the minute that I met Remy. The day feels like the first day of my real life, like everything before it was just a dream, that every memory that led up to that day was just imagined. It is so interesting to think about how quickly your life begins to matter- that your heart feels whole when you didn’t even know that it was missing a piece before that moment. That is exactly how I felt thinking about the moment I met Remy. His short fawn coat, soft brown eyes, and floppy ears made up the perfect image of the dog that I once dreamt of having.

Misha passed away in July. She was old, a beautiful, sweet little girl. Well, not so little. She was a german shepherd, bloodhound mix, about 120 pounds and taller than me. But she was strong and loving and gentle, and passed away from cancer in her sleep.

We are globetrotters. Always were. Even the corona pandemic didn't stop us from travelling. When I say us, I mean me and my best friend Sir Lancelot Von Phillipsdorf.
Oberon Von PhillipsdorfPublished 2 years ago in PetlifeThere is a CHANCE that he's going to run away.
To be honest, I have been waiting to make this “joke” for so long, but now I have to explain the joke. My dog’s name is Chance. I don’t know who he was named after and why he was named after that thing or person. All I know is that my dad had named him, and after a few years of having Chance, my dad has left. He left our family behind, my sister, my mom, but the person, well animal, who was hurt the most by his departure was my dog. Chance was heartbroken. Of course, he didn’t come up to me and tell me that, but I could. We all could see it behind his cheery smile, the feelings of devastation. Chance gets so excited every time my dad visits and acts like a puppy again.
