[gemy]

I know this is a commonly used phrase but so lacking to describe what a dog is and can be to their owner guardian and partner.


I think the term pet is quite well frankly dismissive.


My dogs are working partners in my life. My dogs are obedience trained and love to work with me. My dogs aid and support my life in so many many ways.


My untitled service dog will pull me in my wheelchair - will hold me if I should fall and need to get up with some assistance. My dogs are my friends, my companions and fulfill a much needed role in my life.
'
They are not JÙST PETS They are not after thoughts - that I feed and bring to the vets. They are an integral part of my life and one of my raison d'etre


So don't own a pet own or be the caretaker of your 4 legged partner in life.
