That's lovely Ellen :)) Where I live animals are all required to be useful!! In a farming way, the neighbors struggle with us walking Irish, newfies, and a border collie. It's really quite sad they actually find us odd ! And the look on there faces of absolute shock when they see them inside the house lol. :) I also can't agree more with children been raised with a dog or pet. I would run outside and around the corner of our house to cry on my Cindys shoulder when I got in trouble as a child.…
That's lovely Ellen :)) Where I live animals are all required to be useful!! In a farming way, the neighbors struggle with us walking Irish, newfies, and a border collie.

I would run outside and around the corner of our house to cry on my Cindys shoulder when I got in trouble as a child. Saying good bye to her when I was 13 is something I still remember so very well. I learnt a lot about life growing up with Cindy, a few years later my parents died and although I adored them truly I did, to this day I have found saying good bye to a much loved four legged fur friend harder than my parents. Maybe it's because we have to make that gut wrenching dicision to let them go.<br/>
Even as an adult today I turn to our dogs they are always there for you in a time of need, like Carmel wrote :) There love is unconditional : ))) I agree a lovely find and so…tag:irishsetters.ning.com,2013-02-15:865021:Comment:10737752013-02-15T09:56:30.722ZEllen Turberfieldhttps://irishsetters.ning.com/profile/EllenTurberfield

Lovely & so true. I find the hardest moment of all is when you are mourning the loss of a four-legged friend and some human 'friend' makes the 'just a ...' declaration.

This is really great text!<br />
As a person who had really lot of different pets, I'd say no animal is "just an animal"! Most of the greatest moments in my life are somehow connected to my animals, and unfortunately, some very sad moments, too. I was fortunate enough to grow up with dogs and all kinds of different animal species, and it was a wonderful experience to have them by my side through my childhood. And afterwards, off course! I can't imagine my life without these fantastic friends! But I…

Most people (mostly those who don't own animals) probably think I must be crazy for loving my animals as much as I do, they don't understand how can a person give up many things and time for a pet, as they say - it's "just a dog"!

You are so very right. None of my furry red animal companions are just a dog. Danny and Harvey are beloved family members that add so much joy to our lives.<br />

I know several "just a dog" people. They think I am crazy. I think they have no idea what fun and joy they are missing out on. To each his own!
