What's up dog?
Do you ever wonder how a dog can change your life so instantly?
Dudley came into my life at a time when I least expected it. But at the exact moment in time that we needed each other. He saved me (psychologically) and I saved him (as his first family sadly couldn't afford to keep him).
Dudley is my soul dog. He brightens my life every single day. He wakes up and his goofy little handsome face looks up at me and his whole body wiggles with joy. Each and every morning. How lucky am I.
Going through some of the most difficult and tumultuous times in my life over the last year; having Dudley there by my side, has allowed me to focus on his happiness, what makes me truly happy, and our life together.
Having many friendships change or cease over the past year has been difficult. The loneliness I used to feel, has dialled right back due to this dude. I have gained some new friendships that have come along for a reason, our shared love of dogs.
I can't imagine my life without him. He has enriched and enlightened my life in ways I couldn't have foreseen. I'll be forever grateful.
