Words from a Reader

The “Writing Life Stories” e-mails I receive are such treasures. As soon as I see there is one in my inbox, I read it immediately. I look forward to them and never know how they will touch me. They can be interesting, informative, humorous, and/or touching.

My Dog Rocky, will take any pet bed when he needs a nap.

You might think that if Rocky was too big to fit into his own bed, he would know that a smaller bed would be uncomfortable for him. But he thinks any bed any where is his.

Rocky is my shadow. Where I am he is close by. On a day when I was busy at my computer, I happened to look back and there under a card table, in Tiger the Cat's bed, Rocky decided to curl up and make himself at home. Throughout the afternoon, I watched him try to fit his 52 pounds into her 12 pound space. There were times when his upper body and head fit snugly inside, but his body hung out.


In the photo above, Smokie, the cutest of all pups, grabbed Rocky's bed before he could claim it. He appeared confused as he walked around and around waiting for her to vacate his premises. When it became obvious she had settled in for a long spell, he climbed in beside her. Sharing with the tiny Schnauzer is better than having no bed at all.

Our Pets

Rocky, the sweetest dog, we found while out walking one day. He is ten years old now and limps a bit after exercise. His muzzle has grayed and he sleeps more than plays. He begs and talks to us wanting just one more treat. How can we ignore those precious brown eyes?
We got a big laugh when Rocky decided to curl up in Tiger's little bed. He weighs around 55 pounds now and we had to replace his old bed as he outgrew it.
Seems he doesn't care whether it is large or small -- if it is a bed on the floor, he thinks it is his.


Barry always leaves Rocky the last bite of his sandwich. Rocky waits patiently, knowing it is coming.Posted by Picasa
