Dogs are absolutely amazing companions. They bring such joy and love to our lives. Each of my dogs has provided me with these joyful moments!
Joy is keeping active
I have been blessed to have had very active dogs. They have kept me on my toes, from my escape artist Smokey to my never ending ball of energy- Midnight. If I wasn’t walking with Midnight, we were playing ball or frisbee, or swimming. He definitely kept me in shape.
Joy is socialization
Being an introvert, I have always found it hard to meet new people. When I am walking my dog though, it comes easier. Firstly, the people coming up to me ( or the dog) are generally dog people- that makes it easier to break into conversation and socialize. I have met some great people while out walking my dogs. It also led me to want to join a rescue, which brought more great dog people into my social circle.
Joy is emotional support
Smokey helped me through my awkward teenage years. He was a great listener to all my troubles. All of my dogs have provided me with something I needed at the time, whether it was emotional support, comfort, laughter or patience, they knew what I needed and supported me through it.
Joy is Creating memories
As we journey through life with our dog, they provide us with so much love and such support that it can become difficult to accept that time is slipping away from us. As they age it becomes even more important to create memories that will stay with us forever. Ways we can create memories:
- Take a road trip together
- A special play date together
- A cuddling day at home
- A photo session for everlasting memories of your time together
