Puppy Love

My eleven year old golden retriever, Buck, is finally getting some love from me. I used to just call him stinky and dodge him as I walked in our back gate. Poor baby. I spent New Years Eve at a friend's ranch house and all of the couples there had dogs. They loved them so much. It made me realize dogs aren't as bad as I made them out to be. So as the new year rolls around, Buck and I now take walks on the greenbelt and play fetch at local parks. Every time I reach for his leash, he lights up and runs in circles. This year he is going to get more puppy lovin' than ever before!
