Little Boy and His Dog

Now this is what I call a milk farm:

“When we talk about understanding, surely it takes place only when the mind listens completely -- the mind being your heart, your nerves, your ears- when you give your whole attention to it.”
Jiddu Krishnamurti

Do you remember I am highly allergic to animals? I have gone thru getting animals four times over 25+ years and each time my dear friend Sharon took them - probably a better home then here! I tried so many times to have one for the kids. Just couldn't do it. Headaches - asthma - dermatitis - etc. GS wanted on so bad. My Daughter an I decided to try one more time. Something different then my pugs. We told the GS we were rescuing for six months and then had to give it to someone else. I had to have a plan of action in there - sorry God for the lie - but Christmas is 6 months. The old GS was upset - but guess what - we got nothing short of a miracle from GOD! We told the GS - as a Christmas present - since I didn't have any allergies - he could keep the pup. If you could have seen his dance of Jubilation!

THANK YOU GOD FOR THIS MIRACLE.
Presenting DISCO!



HOW WE FEEL HERE!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Love, sandie

So glad to read you are doing better!! Your new dog is adorable!! You are allergic to dogs and cats both? Wonder how come you are fine with this one, maybe he was meant to be yours! What a great Christmas present.

Doris Sturm said...

Disco is so cute, Sandie - did you tell your grandson officially on Christmas that he gets to keep him for good? Are you not allergic to him? I hope not.

Glad to hear things are getting manageable for you. Hang in there...you can do it! I will continue to pray for you, my friend.

Love you,
Doris (and Gizzy)

Furry Bottoms said...

Aw, that is excellent!!! Maybe you've developed an immunity to these animals, so youre no longer allergic? One would hope so!

Oh Sandie - I just finished watching the Little Boy and His Dog video - I've got tears in my eyes again...
How precious - that has to be the most patient dog in the world! And so loving, and so loyal - too cute.

And YAY!!! Disco stays!! WOO HOO WOOF WOOF!

I can't believe how happy GS must have been - and Disco is unbelievably cute! What a wonderful gift that must have been...

And all the doggies out in Blog Land are giving each other "High Fives" with their paws!!

GOD BLESS!

I am so glad to see you are doing good. I've never seen the clear plastic either. Didn't have it when I had mine done.
I am so happy your GS could keep his Disco, I know he is really dancing a jig.
