Puppies make your world light up!

With fuzzy paws and a wet little nose, He wobbles to and fro, A stranger to the world around, Wond’ring “Where did Mommy go?” No GPS for his wandering steps, They hop and stop and start, With yappy yips and clumsy paws, He walks right into your heart. She nibbles your outstretched fingers With searching velvet lips; Tries to drink her water bowl dry, Lapping water in sloppy sips. She has that certain puppy smell That brings your face a smile As teasing, nudging, licking you – Uh-oh, she made a pile! Your chair legs all have tooth marks now, All rules are made to break; In romping, stomping hide & seek, Huge messes he will make! But all will be forgiven, You will never want to part With your darling, rowdy puppy Who leaves paw-prints on your heart.

I love this! Reminds me of my Maltese when he was a puppy. He's nine years old, but still a beloved puppy to me.

Others have stolen the usual superlatives. But I felt a real empathy and understanding of the little ones that come to us straight from their mothers' guidance and sustenance. They are little shaky at first, but soon learn how to tear up the house with their mischievous behavior.

I think I was a good parent to my feisty little Jazz. I'm sure glad I didn't have him as a puppy or I might have resented those bad habits.

A puppy has a way of opening the heart, beautifully described here with love and tenderness.

from one dog owner to another, this is adorable. When I was a kid, I would take our dog's paw, and press it down on an an ink pad, and the pres his paw down on the paper at the end of letters I sent my sister. Paw prints from home.

Ha ha ha, how true this is! We can forgive them anything, especially when they look at you with those big, sad, puppy eyes. That picture is perfect, so adorable!
