Dogs Are Ambassadors of Love

     Last Saturday I went on a three hour nature walk.  My intention was to take pictures of the changing landscape and wildlife along the ditch. I kept meeting new people taking a walk with their dogs. Judy told me that when she turned 60 she decided she didn't want jewelry or a trip, what she wanted most was a dog. Her dog Rio is a dream come true. It is obvious from the photos that Rio is devoted to Judy. Sandy, a pet sitter and dog walker, was walking Sophie who belongs to Kim, her client. Sophie is a two year old lab mix. Her coat was very soft and her expressions were adorable. I fell head over heels in love. I've passed Dennis and Dominic several times walking their Westies Solo and Ecca. Their dogs seem to love the water. All four of them were on a power walk and I felt guilty stopping them. Today on my walk I met Joni walking her dog Indy whom she adopted six months ago from the west side pound. Indy was full of ticks and his fur was all matted. They had to shave him and it was the month of January. Now Indy's coat looks beautiful and he is a very happy and affectionate dog.
     I love hearing all these wonderful dog stories. I like to think that all dogs are ambassadors of love. They open our hearts with their devotion. They are our best friends and loyal companions.
