16. Let me get dirty once in a while.

Your world is inside, but I thrive outdoors. Sometimes I find a lot of mud or a lake that smells like all of its fishy inhabitants. I understand if you don’t want to wash all that stuff off every day, but as long as it’s safe, let me go back to my wild roots every now and then.

17. Touch me.

Nothing makes me feel more loved than when you take time out of your day to rub my ears or scratch that itchy spot on my back that I can't reach. I can't understand your words, but I definitely understand the feelings behind a hug.

  1. My old buddy of 11 years passed on a week ago , it has ripped my heart out . Thinking about getting one more – I’m 61 and on “borrowed time” as it is , but I wonder about doing that .

  2. He is beautiful Dave. We lost one shepherd at just 3y of age. The breeder was very well known and respected but he started to try and breed what he called the perfect shepherd and inbred through litters which resulted in our baby casper having a spine that literally fell apart at such a young age.
    My husband is a graphic designer and he illustrated a scene of rainbow heaven and placed Casper into the scene, playing with his favourite toy while being escorted by the angels. It make us cry each time we look at the picture.

  3. My boy had it at age 4 he is now 12 surgery does not help. It is an autoimmune disease. My boy was on cyclosporin 200 mg 2 x a day his was compounded so it was cheaper. Also used desitin or but past with zinc oxide we would put on him he is in remission. There is a web sight where other peoples dog have it and can help I am part of that group and they can give advice since they have battled this for sometime very knolageable.
