Our dogs teach us so much about the love we need! I’m always Velcro-ing to Poochie. We have a pillow in his crate that says, “When all else fails, hug a dog.” The pillow is always right!

I agree, Sam! Hug a dog is a win-win!!!

Sending you hugs. So great that Annie is with you! I have a pen that says, "Hold on, my therapist is barking."

This one got me in “the feels,” Amy. My husband has Parkinson’s, which is one reason I started following you, but I also just love your writing and how you share your thoughts so honestly.

Thank you, Lesanne! Thinking of both you and your husband as you navigate PD.

Thanks for reminding us about who and what we have right under our noses to help us cope

Amy, have you been following the 20 monks and their dog Aloka, who are on a “peace walk” from Texas to DC? They’ve deliberately mapped a path through some of the hardest small towns. They’re my lifeline right now. You can follow them on FB. Aloka even has his own FB page.❤️

Teresa - I had not heard about this! I’m following both FB pages now, and I’m in love with Aloka!
