DOGGIE HEALING

Dogs are smart. Yesterday we had a friend stop by that is going through some emotional challenges.  She was sitting on the small couch and Tim and I on the other. I had just shown Tim a sweet thank you card mailed to us from Marc and Traci DiCaprio. It was sitting on the arm of the couch.

Coco is one of the sweetest, non-destructive pups I have ever met. He only plays or carries around his toys, rarely messing with anything that doesn't belong to him. However, the card must have fallen on the floor, because as our friend was sharing some of her grief with us...at the floor at her feet was Coco with the card in his mouth looking up pathetically at her.

As soon as I asked what he was doing, he dropped the card (it was almost as big as him...he only weighs 7 pounds) and jumped into her lap. Apparently since he isn't able to go buy her a cheer up card, he decided to use what was at hand.

It worked. Her spirits were lifted as we laughed at his antics. He is a little healer and takes his work quite seriously.

We can always find things to be grateful for if we just look around us!
