What is good about having a pet?
For me the best things about having a pet are love, loyalty, companionship and commitment. When shopping for a pet, it has been said that the animal picks the person. I remember seeing my dog on petfinder. He definitely picked me. It was his eyes that told me he felt sad, rejected and vulnerable. I couldn’t stop wondering why this 2 1/2 year old miniature poodle was surrendered. I knew I wanted him. So we brought him home and it was one of the best decisions my family of four has ever made. We each have our unique relationship with him. Eleven years later he still makes me smile. He still fills me with joy and love. He still completes me. He’s one of the great loves of my life.
