I have three dogs flopping around the house. Two golden retrievers and a chocolate lab, you know, lap dogs...

 

Intro to Dogs 101
 
 
Dear granddaughter of 8 months
Do not be afraid of their big mouths
They are friendly
Big and furry
Legs move in a flurry
Boy, are your eyes wide
No need to hide
Be gentle and pat their heads
Their tongues just hang out
And they flop down a lot
 
No, don’t grab handfuls of fur
No, don’t pull their ears or their tails
 
Funny, they know she doesn’t know
Funny, they move around her so slow
Funny, they have more patience than I show
Funny, granddaughter is all aglow
Funny, who taught whom here? I want to know…

If you thought it was strange buying a husband, you should try a dog--oh, these were the dogs. Great description, Liz. A pity we can't have the patience for dogs that they sometimes show for us........Jerry

Chocolate labs. The goofy ones. Had two, loved em' both. Won't hesitate for another. Babies and dogs know each other. Patrick

It is amazing how animals know and adopt a child as their own. I had Tippi, a beautiful Shepard/Collie mix, through all my childhood days. Tippi never left my side, she had to be tied, as I caught the bus to school.

Wonderful story. Thank you for sharing.

Warmth and Love, Carin' Spirit

Dear Elizabeth, I have a eighteen year old Pom, He all his life, went crazy any time a baby came to visit, he would beg and howl to be near them, a wonderful thing to witness, sometimes I wondered who's baby it was. Hugs! Have a Merry Christmas! Jasmin Horst
