We Are Family

Lets just cut to the chase

My girl, Houston....she owns me

All it took was just one look at that face

Yep, it was a done deal to that we'd both agree.

She is just shy of one

Being a German Shepherd her growing is no where near done.

Right now, she is almost 90 pounds of pure fun

You should see her do the crazy run

I truly believe God knew we would need a major blessing to be with us in this life

to see us through the grief and strife

one who would be by our side through thick and thin

Loving us simply for who we are within

He created dogs....and oh what a blessing...

In my life I have had amazing dogs ....no, not dogs - family....

From my childhood - Sandy the Brittany Spaniel and Chico the Chihuahua....and to those who I have loved as an adult....Boudreaux a shepherd mix who along with his newborn siblings were found in a dumpster...to Jackie the Jack Russell, Sam, Brandy and Harley my German Shepherds - all of you are loved and missed. I am so grateful to have had you as part of my family and forever a part of my heart.

To the girl named Houston I love you

Thank you for being wonderful you.
