Puppy Love

What can I say? I bought a puppy and fell deep into puppy love. I never, ever thought I would have a puppy love relationship at this stage of my life.
We had said goodbye to our 13-year-old golden retriever and said no more dogs. We can’t do it. We can’t say goodbye to another dog when they leave us. At this time, we had our daughter’s dog, Maci living with us. And that was going to be the end of our dog relationships and therefore no more grieving for two years when we say goodbye to them.
But time always has a way of healing. And two `years later my daughter suggests “mom, you should get a puppy”. I’m saying, “I don’t think so” and as the evening passes with another glass of wine, next thing I know I am on board to getting a puppy.
