Animals Tails
I hope to give you your good awe feeling to start the day!
"A dog's seeing-eye dog"
This is so beautiful.
Lily is a Great Dane that has been blind since a bizarre medical condition required that she have both eyes removed. For the last 5 years, Maddison, another Great Dane, has been her sight. The two are, of course, inseparable.
Thought of the day:
"People will forget what you said; People will forget what you did. But people will never forget how you made them feel."
Dogs too. So what makes you go awe?

So very sweet and just what I needed today. Thank you, Sandie. Have a great day.
The last picture is so special - shows the affection the blind dog has for his companion.
Those dogs are so sweet! I once knew a blind horse named Bruce and he was so gentle and trusting and beautiful :-)
love that quote and you know i love the dog pics. we watched a movie last night, Hallmark, about finding Faith, and it was all about doing things for others.
Oh, what sweet pictures, Sandie. Love the last one!♥
I like your thought for the day...very true!
Oh Sandie,
Those dogs are just so sweet. It makes me so sad to see an animal like this, but having its own seeing eye dog is so up lifting. Thanks!!
Very good thought to remember, Sandie! Especially this time of year when everyone is stressed, so we should take that extra minute to be kind to all!
Cute cartoon, LOL!
Have a good day!

awww, thats just so beautiful.I love how the blind dog stays so close, because I'm partially blind I could resonate with this, looked like my hubby and I awwww,
so sweet. i like the thought of the day quote.
Good morning, Sandie! What an uplifting story---you just can't go wrong with dogs---they truly are God's little angels...
My hubby showed me these picture sof the dogs the other day. They were beyond touching.
Have nothing funny to say today. I bawl when I see tender moments and kitty cats, dogs, and horses get me all the time. Oh yeah, elephants too, I just love elephants. I'd adopt one, but my neighbors might complain.
Yes! smile, joy or joy, smile ...i works! Love the cartoon and the pups!
How very sweet...you can see the affection that they have for each other.
Sweet photos and story, Sandie! I'm so glad the blind doggy has a companion.
I love your post! I'm so happy that I stopped by your blog this morning. Your closing quote is just what I needed to read before heading out my door to go to the nearby school where I'm a kindergarten classroom volunteer. I hope to make each one of those little ones feel special today. I know they do me!

What an awesome post....teared up a little....the thought of the day is SO true....
Such a touching story Sandra. The quote is so true! When I see stories like this or a child helping an elderly person or a helpless animal...I go awwwww. That always touches my heart and gives me more hope for this world.
wow that is so cool!...
OK you got me! I have tears in my eyes. How sweet and wonderful. True friends! Love you, Linda
Hi Sandie. A most endearing post. Hope your day is going great. Susan
The photos of the two Great Danes was so heartwarming. How wonderful! I have always loved that quote at the end my friend.
So beautiful - just what I needed today!
The first one made me laugh and the second one made me tear up!
AWEsome post!!!
Touching photos and an apt application for us all.
Awe - - - this is so cute. I did not realize that dogs could also use the help of an other dog to guide them. Incredible !
How awesome, Sandie....That is so awesome that Maddison takes such great care of Lily... That is true love!!!!!
Thanks for sharing.
Hugs,
Betsy
This is amazing, wonderful pictures!! Phil was just asking me, wouldn't I rather put a dog to sleep rather than to have it live blind, a hard decision!
So very true. What great buddies they are. Years ago I took my daughters to the Humane Society so they could each pick out a kitty. While there I saw 2 Siamese cats, one blind and one that was it's buddy. I could not bring home 4 cats but I often wondered and hoped that someone did pick them.
how cute!
great quote to live by.
hope your day is going well.
Oh Sandie, that brought tears to my eyes. What a beautiful testament to the love animals bring to us and to each other. That made my day. Ann
What a wonderful post. When I read my comment from you just now..I immediately came for my visit..and as soon as your header came up I began to smile. Then I though, "sheesh, but I love this woman!" and then I read this! :):):) Wordless here..just wordless..
The dogs are such a great story....and thanks for the cartoon smiles!
Animal stories like this one makes me go AWE!!! Animals will never stop amazing me. They bring us such joy! Hugs, Sue
The dog story warms my heart.
If that isn't the sweetest thing I don't know what is.
That is an amazing story. I love that last picture the best of all.
I'd seen this before, but it never fails to make my eyes water :)
I think we humans have a lot to learn from dogs!
Hugs,
Myra
That is just so sweet!

Such sweet pictures! That's amazing. I don't know how I missed coming here yesterday!!! Hope your day was good!
What a touching pictorial story.
Those dogs are so precious. Hope your enjoying your week. I am trying to catch up on reading posts but feel like I am making no progress. I am tired too but I need to get started on the tree.
those dogs really are amazing aren't they
Awwww, you almost brought me to tears with these pictures!! So sweet and beautiful...
This was just so precious - how it touched my heart. You know that I love dogs - in my opinion, their hearts lie very close to the heart of God.
What makes me go awe??
A sunset, a snow-capped mountain, the ocean, the vast and quiet desert at night.
God makes me go AWE...
