Dogs
\nJoy
\nWater
\nPavement
\nSunshine<\/p>\n
Warm wet muzzle meeting me in the mornings making me open my eyes to find a kind inquiring pair starring back at me. A wagging tale dances back and forth as his mission of waking me is completed
\nIt’s time to play time to get the day started
\nAfter a brief head rub he darts back and forth across the room as if to tell me I’m late for some great adventure
\nAs I rub my eyes I can hear loud laps of the water bowl as long streams of drool dangle from powerful jaws that never do anything more dangerous than smile
\nUnless you are that squeaky toy
\nThen you must be destroyed at all cost
\nUntil all of the stringy white stuffing has been spread across the floor.
\nBut for now he’s mainly concerned with going outdoors snd hitting the pavement
\nHis proud prance head either high up cockily showing off his beauty
\nOr head sniffing the ground as ptty pat sounds are made when his nails and paws tap dance under the sunshine to a tune being kept in time with his tale.
\nMy sweet boy
\nMy four legged bundle of joy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
