After reading the past few pages of this thread I had to post: Until 3 months ago we had 4 dogs 2 cats and live in nature as close as we can be at least, lol There is no replacement for an animal who can be with you for most of the day, they comfort and also, more importantly, give you unbiased support and comfort, and all you do is feed them. Although I get this from my wife who also has Meniere's we have had to adopt and change our behaviour to be able to understand each other and the only medium either of us had till I had a complete understanding of the disabling effects of this horrible disease it was my animals who were always there to comfort me and my wife. Don't ever forget the love an animal gives is never more than that of a two or three year old child so you never need to worry they are over thinking your condition or your inability to explain it as the dog/cat doesn't care they just love you and want to see you feeling better. I can write stories about the amount of times my husky has come over and worked me out of depression, frustration, etc and was always there when I fall. Mt wife and I have almost adopted their treatment to show us how to treat each other, it has helped dramatically for me and I now always ask myself "what would Blue do" ? Artizan
Animals are amazing creatures and so in tuned to their owners as long as you treat them well. I too get great relief from my dogs and their love when I'm feeling down. They can always seem to tell when I need that extra attention.
That Bea is beautiful, inside and out. I love your facebook pictures! Some aren't so lucky. Their personality and meanness ruins what ever outer beauty they may have had. I think we've all run into people like that from time to time. What a waste of oxygen.
The dogs are onto the June Bugs. They can jump and catch them mis air now. They knock them down and go to smell them and the bug jumps and they feel those spindly legs and they shake their heads. Then they play with them until they stop moving and go onto the next one. Funny to watch and keeps them busy. I was telling my mom about the beetles, there's a lot this year, and she called them, "June Bugs." I said its July, LOL
That my two favorite cups have legs and walk away all by themselves. I can never find them and no one ever admits to having them.
