Companion

Tan upon white fluffy short fur.
Brown eyes that begs for your attention like please keep me secure and safe.
A tail that wags to greet you at the door when it's been a long day.
The whimper that matches the sadness you may feel on days you cry.
The bark you hear that makes you smile on the days you find joy.
The
pitter patter of paws running around wanting to play.
A companion who no matter what will lay beside you offering only themselves to help keep your problems at bay.
Even a simple small paw to hold on days you find you need to cuddle up and hug something or someone when you feel all alone.
Mans best friend isn't just for man.
It's for those who appreciate a good companion that will keep every secret you have and listen to every hopes and dreams you will ever tell.
And you may think it's crazy when she runs up to lick you on the hand or cheek.
But it's just her way of saying I love you because it's all she knows how to speak.
I love how she lays at my feet when the winter storm blows just
so I won't catch a cold through the night.
And how she stands guard at the door waiting to see if the person is worthy to be friends.
Like protecting her own offspring when she thinks they are in danger.
And how she keeps me company when I feel lonely at times.
And at the end of each day, she closes her eyes. Never asking more than just to be loved.
Because she's not just my dog to me.
She's my friend and my companion.
My secrets and my dreams.
My wishes and hopes that just walks on four legs amongst a world that just can't see.
My dog is my hearts faithful friend that I picked out just for me.
