The poem says it all... Nothing for me to add
I am supposed to move to Australia next year, but I will not go if I cannot take Mocha, or if the flight there will pose danger to her. I intruded into her life, and she deigns me with her love and obedience. I will NOT leave her even for a better future.. because I will be alone then. I would have left my heart behind, and then what good would I be?
My friends waiting down under do not understand it.. And I was really mad about that, still am. They think I am throwing my future, but they "just don't understand". I would do this for any dog I own. She is my family. She will go with me, or I will stay with her. Period.
