It’s National Dog Day, and my heart is fuller—and heavier—because of the dogs who have walked beside me. 🐾
I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember. They aren’t just pets; they are the keepers of my secrets, my daily walking companions, and my favorite teachers in life.
Today, I’m celebrating my little 16-year-old Chiweenie, who is still holding it down and showing me what resilience looks like. And I’m holding space for my beautiful 14-year-old Vizsla, who I lost a few months ago. The house is quieter without him, but the lessons of unconditional love and presence he taught me are still everywhere.
If you’re a dog person, you know: they really do leave paw prints on your heart that never quite fade.
Give your pups an extra squeeze today. They aren't here for a long time, but they make it the best time. ❤️
