Tripawds Three Legged Dog & Cat Forum Archives

This was shared by Charley's mom Ellen on FB today.  I thought it was a great article long but great it explains our love.  Many of us have experienced this.  Some are just new in this part of the journey. 

Most people who lose a dog will be quick to tell you that it's just like losing a child. But it's much more complicated than that. First of all, most parents will go through life without ever losing a child. When they do, they will be quick to tell you it's not supposed to be that way! But when we bring a dog into our life, it goes without saying that one day we will face losing them. In the bigger world outside the dog world, many people believe that it's "just a dog." Some believe the comparison should not be made. But in reality, everywhere in the world today, there are millions of people suffering grief that is nearly unbearable, because of the loss of a dog. Because dogs have a way of crawling into a part of our heart where we would never trust any human to go. And then, once in a while, there is that special dog who touches our soul, then leaves us with an understanding of love that surpasses all other.

Occasionally some people are able to catch a glimpse of a parallel universe where everything is in order. It's a place where fear does not exist. It's a world of limitless undying love without conditions. Some people are able to step through the looking glass to enter that world without boundaries. Then their lives begin to flow effortlessly, because they have chosen to walk down the path the universe intended for them.

That parallel universe is where the story of Zoe The Happy Dog takes place. Zoe was no ordinary dog and this is no ordinary dog tale. But it will surely touch the hearts of everyone who understands the natural bond between dogs and humans.
