Life with Phoenix

Morning lovin’ all day lovin’

Namaste (beautiful souls)

goodnight!

A big heart like his

Trust that an animal is a guardian angel, a healer, and an antidote to any low vibration energy! His company melts solitude, soothes the heart, and brings about certain essential disciplines, such patience, confidence, conscious care and affection.

Ah, the love! Here are recent photos of Phoenix in nature, and in cafés 🙂  He just turned 7 months  ~*~

And here’s what we do after the long walks and playtime with friends 🙂

This one is allowed on the couch 😉

Isn’t he such a honey bunny?

How about now? 🙂

 

I kiss my dogs on the lips.

‘You think dogs will not be in heaven? I tell you, they will be there long before any of us.’
~ Robert Louis Stevenson

‘One last word of farewell, dear master and mistress. Whenever you visit my grave, say to yourselves with regret but also happiness in your hearts at the remembrance of my long happy life with you: “Here lies one who loves us and whom we loved.” No matter how deep my sleep I shall hear you, and not all the power of death can keep my spirit from wagging a grateful tail.’

‘What we have once enjoyed, we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes part of us.’ ~Helen Keller

‘He is my other eyes that can see above the clouds; my other ears that hear above the winds. He is the part of me that can reach out into the sea. He has told me a thousand times over that I am his reason for being; by the way he rests against my leg; by the way he thumps his tail at my smallest smile; by the way he shows his hurt when I leave without taking him. (I think it makes him sick with worry when he is not along to care for me.) When I am wrong, he is delighted to forgive. When I am angry, he clowns to make me smile. When I am happy, he is joy unbounded. When I am a fool, he ignores it. When I succeed, he brags. Without him, I am only another man. With him, I am all-powerful. He is loyalty itself. He has taught me the meaning of devotion. With him, I know a secret comfort and a private peace. He has brought me understanding where before I was ignorant. His head on my knee can heal my human hurts. His presence by my side is protection against my fears of dark and unknown things. He has promised to wait for me… whenever… wherever – in case I need him. And I expect I will – as I always have. He is just my dog.’ ~ Gene Hill

This blog post is in the honor of my late dog, Lucky. And in utter over love with my two actual dogs, Puppy & Phoenix 🙂
