She said that he told her she would be okay. I never heard him say a word but I know that he is very wise and a wonderful patient, sweet dog so I am sure he told her something. The most important thing, and the reason I do this, is that that little girl left feeling better and safer than when she arrived. Sometimes it feels good to know you make a difference in this world, one person at a time.
What a wonderful, uplifting story, LTBD. I can't wait to meet your dogs in June and see what can be done here with all the good things dogs do. You and Luca are my inspiration.
