Here's the thing; I'm a dog person. Like all the way. No offense to all the cat-lovers out there, truthfully I'm glad you love cats (so that I don't have to), and don't be upset, I'm just biased. Since I was two I've always had a dog or two, or even three at times. I just love the way that they become a companion! Living in a neighborhood, our dogs were always inside dogs who loved being with us at all times. With a dog, you truly develop a relationship to the point where they act as if its the best day of their lives every single time you come home from work and the saddest every morning you leave. One time a friend of ours said something like, "You want to see who loves you more, your dog or your wife? Lock them both in the back of a car (or closet) for a few hours and see who's happy to see you when unlock the door". HAHA! I love this little anecdote! *Not that you should EVER try it* but because of how true it is! As a wife, if my husband accidentally shut the cellar door on me and totally forgot I was in there for an hour or so, I'd be fuming, FUMING I tell you. Do the same to a dog? When you open the door there will be nothing but gratitude and love coming from the dog. I have sincerely missed not having a dog since being in college. Although I have wanted one, I've held out knowing I hadn't the time sufficient enough to devote to the dog. That is (in part) why I can't wait until August! I'll finally be graduating from college and only working part-time which means?! Yes, me and Mr. Barnes will have a new canine addition to our family :). As always, I'd like to connect this post to a good local cause. In light of the message I have chosen the H.A.R.T foundation. They take in homeless animals. They are looking for volunteers and are in great need of donations.
Please take a look!! Their blog link is below :)
