I know many times its been hard for me to be up beat. We had 2 barn fires in just one months time in 06, and I wasn't sure how much I could take, then one of our beautiful gifts would make life easier. Thanks Cat for sharing the story and showing us how many ways hounds touch lives. Happy Thanks Giving everyone This is a beautiful story. I know many times its been hard for me to be up beat.

I have been in this same position last year. Too many loved one deaths too close together, health issue and lonliness. But, I was always concerned that no one would love Bailey as much as me and he wouldn't understand where I was. Having to take care of him, walk him, etc. forced me out of bed and out in the world. I always say that it is a good thing that he is not dry clean only, because he has absorbed so many tears, he would have been a pocket basset by now. We think that we are taking care of them, but really, they are nuturing our souls. This hits too close to home, but is so true. I have been in this same position last year.

You can tell that Antigone made a lot of friends and was always welcome wherever she arrived. I think there is something special with adopted dogs, they have more understanding and there is something extraordinary about the love they give. What a beautiful video.
