Man's Best Friend


Next to my wife, who is my best friend for life, comes my dog. The title of Man's Best Friend hold very true when it comes to my dog, casey, who is a border collie mix. Casey, although smart for a dog, is not the brightest. She doesn't really need to be all that smart though. Except when it comes to her destroying the house, furniture, and running away countless times from me into the neighborhood, where I have to chase her from neighbors' backyards. But with all that I love her very much, I have always loved dogs and think this one will live longer than the ones I had when I was young. I love my dog now mostly because I can appreciate her for just being her, a dog. I love to watch her play with her toys, cross her paws when she lays down, and when she sits for things as small as a piece of ice. I have the simple things in life and sometimes forget how really BIG they are. I am in school for something I really believe in, I have a wife who I would never be without, pets, and a house in a small town. That's the signs of getting older..... but you know.... I love it.
