Dogs teach us so many things. They teach us unconditional love, devotion, and loyalty. They teach us that how you love them (others) will be returned in how they (others) love you back. They show us how to be transparent; how to let your real feelings show - you never have to wonder what a dog is feeling. They teach us how to evaluate others, determine if someone new is a potential new friend, or someone to avoid. And, unfortunately, they teach us how to say goodbye. I believe there are dogs in heaven. How could it be heaven without them? And even though saying goodbye to each was incredibly painful, the joy of adopting another rescue (or two) always makes the hurt go away.
