This week we are looking after an old dog. An 18 year old dog.
Sassi struggles with life. She gets tangled in chair legs and falls on uneven ground. She whimpers for help when she's stuck. Just like an old lady, she relies on others to help her through the final days.
We are treasuring this time with her. She is reminding us how short life is and how precious youth and health.
We remember her as a CRAZY WILD puppy. What a great dog!
ReplyDeleteSo she's been teaching life lessons her entire life! First, to "seize the day" and now to "not let pride get in the way of living"! And who says you cant't learn anything from animals!?
