Personal Thoughts About My Dogs
November 28, 2009
So it seems 2009 is fast coming to an end. And what a friggin’ CRAZY year it’s been! My marriage fell apart, got divorced, then became BEST friends with that same ex-wife. Go figure!
Anyway, I wanted to get a bit personal and talk about what I’ve been doing – or NOT doing, with my dogs. To be honest, I have not done any Schutzhund training with any of them this whole year. Basic obedience, yes, but nothing more than that. Poor dogs! But even though life got hecka crazy – and now is finally stable – my dogs are gonna be a prime focus in 2010.
So I’m now living life like I never have before – no longer worried about the past that haunted me. No longer worried about what people think of my choices. No longer worried about judgmental but “well meaning” “friends” who couldn’t see me through my past. So I’m doing – THANK YOU JESUS – great!!!

I think you pinpointed a very important aspect of having dogs. I learn sooo much from German Shepherds. They thought me how to be a better person, how to open up emotionally and how to devote more time to what is important.

@German Shepherd – You hit the nail on the head! Many non-dog peeps are non-dog peeps because the MISS the point you are making about how are dogs teach us so much about how to open up emotionally, and how to devote more time to what is important!
