dog
It's no coincidence that a dog is a man's best friend; they're more faithful than most other animals, and more faithful than many people.

A rough morning,
There are moments in time that escape us and our memories as the days fall away, every once in a while, there are moments that take shape breathe and live vividly forever. The moment I first saw my furry friend I knew he something was different. Not just because of the unusual circumstances that predisposed my seeing him. It was his stunningly unique behavior that eclipsed all the stress of that day.

Dogs Are the Most Faithful and Consistent of All Our Companions
I didn’t want to wake up. I could ignore Scruffy nudging me with her nose, but the leg kicking my belly was persistent. I groaned and rolled over. The bed was wet. I turned on the light as Scruffy’s first puppy made its entrance into the world.

Loyal Companions
Every now and then, Facebook will pop up a memory of our two lovely ladies and I’ll have to pause and remember them. Buying two rescue dogs was the best decision our family could have made, and the memories we have are good, even with the bittersweet tang of their loss.

The Rescues -- A Series
I am Dying. Humans find that such a harsh thing to say. But it is true. My new family does not know yet. They know I am sick, because they took me to the Vet this morning, but I can feel the weakness setting into my very heart. It will not be long now.

The Rescues -- A Series
Each day after that was wonderful. Mama, the lady’s name, put medicine on each and every wound. It hurt but I trusted her and let her do it. She made sure I took my medicine every day and got lots of little meals, I was only 45lbs. when I should have been 120lbs. So, Mama said it was going to be a slow build. She also gave me a bath that made my skin feel so much better. It stopped burning and itching and in few days the hair started to grow back. When the new growing hair got so prickly feeling, I had to chew at it Mama gently applied new medicine to the patchy places that eased the pain and helped it heal further.

Her second chance.
Our first dog, like many people's firsts, was not a rescue. We got him from a breeder when I was 10 years old, fully vaccinated, health checked and kennel club registered. We took him to puppy classes, long walks, and had loads of socialisation, he was a spoilt brat to be perfectly honest. However, even though we did all this he still ended up needing both his cruciate ligaments fixing after he stupidly bolted after a squirrel and he developed little man syndrome (meaning he tries to fight any dog bigger than him), despite all the training and socialisation he got from a young age.

Sinbad and Caesar found us
When we moved to Darwin in Australia's top end (the Northern Territory), my father wasn't expecting us. Mum rented a sparsely furnished house on stilts then phoned Dad to tell him we'd landed from Sydney. When I say "we", I mean Mum, me (I was seven), my brother (4) and my sister (1).

A Manhattan Princess
Princess Ella Montrose did not start off her life as a princess but she knew that it was her fate to become one. She was born on the island of Cozumel where her first owners were oblivious to her true status, they treated her as less than royal, less than a being of any worth, less than a dog. She was beaten, tied up, & left to fester. Befitting her royal blood, part of her remained impervious to this treatment, she bided her time, fully aware that though born of such humble beginnings her true lineage would soon become evident to all.

Furfriend Furever
I had only recently moved to Tennessee. I was struggling as a teacher, a person, and a human. I had great doubts and was weighed down by my desire to do great things. I found myself constantly at war with some form of societal blindness or decadence. Down here, dogs are commonly left forgotten or abandoned. At first, I tried looking through adoption sites. Many of them offered adorable dogs but were either too far away or too expensive. I had just moved! I could not afford $5,000 for a dog. I wanted to so spend every cent I had to recuse those sweet caring eyes. Some were scams and demanded the money up front without scheduling a visit or get to know you phase.
