See My Previous Post in honor of Barry. And..... "Go hug your dog today!"

For All Good Dogs

I'm going to dedicate my blog today to a very recently departed friend.

We have all felt the pain of losing someone who has loved us.
I'm not sure that we have all been lucky enough
to have experienced the love of a family dog.
For those of you who haven't had that privilege,
I am sorry for your loss.

Close friends had to say good bye
to one of their best friends yesterday.
He was a big, happy, black, lop-eared Shepherd
named Barry.
He was unusual.
He was one of those dogs
that seemed like he was always going to be a puppy.
Not the kind of dog for everybody, he had special needs.
He had found the perfect family.
He was very lucky.

To my good friends , who I know will read this blog,
here's how I remember your big friend Barry.
I know your sorrow.

May he rest in peace.

And, if anyone else happens to read this blog,
go hug your dog.
You'll be glad you did.
