Every morning I wake up to see him looking at me with his rich chocolate brown eyes, as I struggle to open one eye at a time, he runs his ticklish pink tongue over my eyes, moving on to my nose and lips (and invariably my teeth because I am smiling by now)....and it's the perfect beginning to my non-perfect and sometimes horror struck day. The love of my love, my handsome, adorable and insanely lovable canine, Dude.
All those who share similar thoughts on these four legged angels will know that I don't exaggerate when I say that having a pet is the best thing you could do for yourself. And no its not the unconditional love or the being faithful bit of it that excites me....its just the fact that my Dude's a bundle of joy, love, energy and everything positive and being around him brings only me boundless happiness. His doggy smell in the room as I sleep is comforting and his readiness to share a few moments of kisses and licks is contagious...his clumsy plops on my stomach work like magic even though he fails to understand that being a labrador he gets heavier by the minute!! As he stands at the window to see me leave for office I always look back and wave and he does the same with his tail of course....I cannot even begin to describe these little joys that he brings me everyday in a world where no relationship is friction-free. He undeniably is the coolest Dude around and if you ever met my naughty little ladycharmer I bet you will say the same.
