Lets see those dogs!!! And cats or whatever pets you have

    Timmanis2000, GREAT attitude about becoming a loved Human to any pet that depends on you for almost everything for the rest of their lives.
    Took me until in to my early adulthood to understand that. I never mistreated or gave a pet to an animal shelter, but without telling a long story, a kitten my girlfriend bought, stole my heart and I did everything I could to help him survive feline leukemia. I was rewarded with 14 years of love and loyalty. He and I went through some hard times together. He was always there to make things better. Surprising how attached I get to a cat now. I sure do miss the little guy

    If you get hit, it's because you were there.

    poor little dude. Heal fast

    A man and his dog were walking along a road.
    The man was enjoying the scenery,
    When it suddenly occurred to him that he was dead.


    He remembered dying and that the dog walking
    Beside him had been dead for years.
    He wondered where the road was leading them.


    After a while, they came to a high, white stone
    Wall along one side of the road.


    It looked like fine marble.


    At the top of a long hill, it was broken by a tall arch
    That glowed in the sunlight.


    When he was standing before it, he saw a magnificent
    Gate in the arch that looked like mother-of-pearl and
    The street that led to the gate looked like pure gold.


    He and the dog walked toward the gate, and as he got
    Closer, he saw a man at a desk to one side.



    When he was close enough, he called out,
    "Excuse me, where are we?"


    "This is Heaven, sir," the man answered.


    "Wow! Would you happen to have some water?"
    The man asked.


    "Of course, sir. Come right in, and I'll have
    Some ice water brought right up."
    The man gestured, and the gate began to open.
    "Can my friend," gesturing toward his dog,
    "come in, too?" the traveller asked.


    "I'm sorry, sir, but we don't accept pets."


    The man thought a moment and then turned
    Back toward the road and continued the way
    He had been going with his dog.


    After another long walk, and at the top of another
    Long hill, he came to a dirt road leading through a
    Farm gate that looked as if it had never been closed.


    There was no fence.


    As he approached the gate, he saw a man inside,
    Leaning against a tree and reading a book.



    "Excuse me!" he called to the man.
    "Do you have any water?"


    "Yeah, sure, there's a pump over there,
    Come on in."


    "How about my friend here?" the traveller
    Gestured to the dog.


    "There should be a bowl by the pump," said the man.


    They went through the gate, and sure enough, there
    Was an old-fashioned hand pump with a bowl beside it.


    The traveller filled the water bowl and took a long
    Drink himself, then he gave some to the dog.


    When they were full, he and the dog walked back
    Toward the man who was standing by the tree.


    "What do you call this place?" the traveller asked.


    "This is Heaven," he answered.


    "Well, that's confusing," the traveller said.


    "The man down the road said that was Heaven, too.'"
    "Oh, you mean the place with the gold street and pearly
    Gates? Nope. That's Hell."


    "Doesn't it make you mad for them to use your name like that?"


    "No, we're just happy that they screen out the folks who would
    Leave their best friends behind."





    So-o-o-o. Now you see, sometimes, we wonder why friends
    Keep forwarding stuff to us without writing a word.



    Maybe this will explain it.


    When you are very busy, but still want to keep in touch,
    Guess what you do? You forward email's!


    When you have nothing to say, but still want to keep contact,
    You forward jokes!


    When you have something to say, but don't know what,
    And don't know how . . . . You forward stuff!

    A 'forward' lets you know that . . .
    . . . You are still remembered,
    . . . You are still important,
    . . . You are still loved,
    . . . You are still cared for.

    So, next time if you get a 'forward',
    Don't think that you've been sent just another forwarded joke,
    But that you've been thought of today
    And your friend on the other end of your computer
    Wanted to send you a smile.


    You are welcome at my water bowl anytime !!

    The more people I meet

    The more I love my Dog!
