Rough Mornings And The Number One Cure To Turn It Around

The Story of Georgi and Bonnie

It’s one of those days. You roll out of bed and your realise…this is not going to be a good one. You drag yourself to the kitchen start the percolator and try to come up with reasons why showering is not always necessary…yes I know…you should, but for a split second sleep is looking better. The coffee is ready but you almost nodded off before the coffee had cooled enough to take the firs sip.

Bonnie aka Bon Bon as a puppy

True happiness needs to be felt
My little Princess, whose name is Bonnie which is short for Bonita which means beauty in Spanish, is my morning breath loving bundle of happiness. When I see her I know what life should be about and what trust and loving another creature truly means. I can’t capture this in words for you…I could try but it will never really be the same as living it.

The Cure is near..
Then you hear the most wonderful sound of this morning….little paws are pounding on the wooden floor, some scooting and then a little body jumps into your arms, starts licking your face and makes those little cute groaning noises. Your beloved fur baby is here to let you forget about everything…the shower you really definitely should take, stinky morning breath, the coffee that is still piping hot..don’t burn your mouth now, and all the other tasks you are faced with today. For now you are wrapped in bliss…a moment in time where everything is perfect and you are loved.

Celebrating All Dog Owners
Nope, today we want to celebrate all pet owners who know what it is to get puppy licks every morning, what it is to see true happiness when we are just outside for a silly routine walk or how grateful our pets are to have us in their lives…just as much as we are grateful for them.

Puppy Pounds and Pet Stores
Sure, puppies can be bought in stores and puppies can be rescued from shelters. We are not here to lecture about the reasons why one is better than the other. Or how terrible some pounds truly can be, even if they want us to believe they want the best for the pets.

Green Dog Foundation
Today we also want to shine our spot light on heroes of the Green Dog Foundation. A shelter who really does as advertised. These people work tirelessly to provide protection to pets who need it and placement with kindred spirit owners like you and me.
