She has helped our family move past our tragedy and for that she deserves the best food I can buy,lots of toys and all the attention and love that an only child can take. No doubt she's the boss these days and our mission is to keep her happy. I just can't stop thanking my sons for her and I thank God for the peace that having her has brought to our souls.

So sorry for your loss. It's amazing even if they never have an official title of therapy dog how they always seem to be one anyway.
My Bentley helps keep me centered when things get stressful. He was the best medicine for me. To be completely honest I had a bit of a breakdown last summer. Bentley has turned out to be a missing piece of the puzzle in my recovery.
First night of obedience training the teacher gave us this:
God summoned a beast from the field and he said....
"I endow you with the instincts uncommon to other beasts:
faithfulness, devotion, and understanding surpassing those of man himself.
Lest it impair your understanding, you are denied the power of words...
Speak to your master only with your mind and through honest eyes...
So be silent, and be a friend to man...
This shall be your destiny and your immortality." So spake the Lord.
And the dog hear and was content.
