I am 54 years old, my nanny had a dog, I always lived with dogs. My first dog I save him from the street, after my first Great Dane, "my true love" a very long relationship, very deep. immense sadness when Xanta is gone forever. and after Amanda, ... Mercury, ... Tita, .... and many others with very different personalities.
no doubt, losing a company friend is very hard, but living without a dog, I am not myself.
if I have some positive qualities, I am convinced that it is a lot thanks to the dogs.
