DOGS ARE ALOT LIKE KIDS!

SO THIS MORNING I DECIDED THOSE DOGS NEEDED A WALK! THEY HAD BEEN IN THE HOUSE ALL DAY YESTERDAY, WRESTLING, RUNNING AROUND, PLAYING LOUDLY. IN OTHER WORDS, THEY WERE GETTING ON EVERY ONES NERVES. IT WASN'T THEIR FAULT. YOU KNOW, LIKE WHEN THE KIDS HAVE BEEN STUCK INSIDE, AND EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE BEING "GOOD", THE NOISE/ACTIVITY LEVEL IS TOO MUCH AFTER AWHILE. NORMALLY, WE WOULD HAVE GONE FOR A WALK,YESTERDAY MORNING, FIRST THING. BUT IT WAS SOMETHING BELOW ZERO, AND WAY TO COLD FOR OUTSIDE STUFF. THIS MORNING HOWEVER THOSE DOGS WERE GOING OUT. I HAD TWO OF THESE ONE FOR THE RIDE TO THE PARK. ONE FOR THE WALK AROUND THE PARK. AFTER ALL, IT HAD WARMED UP SOME SINCE YESTERDAY, BUT IT WAS STILL THE GIRLS, (AS WE OFTEN CALL THEM), GOT ALL OF THEIR ENERGY OUT RUNNING THROUGH THE TRAIL IN THE PARK. AND EVEN THOUGH I WAS VERY COLD, I WAS STILL ABLE TO TAKE A MOMENT OR TWO, AND SEE GODS BEAUTY. AND BE THANKFUL FOR MY HEALTH, MY DOGS, AND LIVING IN THE STATE OF MAINE. MUCH LIKE MY FLORIDA SISTERS HUSBAND WAS, WHEN THEY SPENT THE WINTER HERE LAST YEAR. SO THE DOGS HAD THEIR MUCH NEEDED WALK. AND I HAD MINE TOO. WITH A BIT OF REFLECTION STIRRED IN. AND OH YEAH, IN CASE YOU THINK I FORGOT SOMETHING NONE OF US RESPONSIBLE DOG OWNERS SHOULD FORGET, YEAH, I DID THAT TOO. HUGS FROM MAINE
