Bereavement
Related: About this forumSitting here thinking of my wife as Duncan pup cuddles his niece.
Granddaughter is almost five months old I put sweet baby on day bed to lay after changing her diaper and bottle. And uncle Dunc the Golden jumps up and stretches out next to her so she does not roll off.
Dunc says father didnt you read Dr. Spock child rearing we must protect and cuddle the human puppies.
Uncle Dunc brought toys to cuddle laying toys squeaky toy next to baby with his niece. Dunc he lays next to granddaughter rubbing his face with paws play sneezing. Dogs do that saying I love you Im not threat dogs are so sweet.

Someone passed away after going blind and having donated monthly to the Canadian National Institute for the Blind for years before getting symptoms and after. Not long after, I saw their neighbour was training a guide dog for the blind. It just sorta happened, a coincidence, but one can enjoy how fitting and a propos it was.
