National Dog Day 2013

We all love our pets, their part of the family! Personally, I'm a dog person, and today is a day to celebrate with your pampered pooch! It's National Dog Day!

Growing up, I never had a dog, as my Dad was allergic, so I would just love going to a friends house and getting the chance to play with their dog. The first thing I did when I moved in to my own place, was get a dog.

I have opted to adopt a dog from the local humane society and give the dog a second chance at life. I've actually adopted 2 over the years.

Dogs provide a lot of company, companionship, and a whole lot of love! There is no better feeling than coming home from a long day at the office, to that wonderful dog anxiously awaiting your return.

My dog, Sadie, is just like one of my babies. In fact, I call her my "Fur-baby".

Dogs truly bring so much joy to ones life. Take time today to give your pup an extra scratch behind the ear, give them an extra treat, and just show that that you really do appreciate them as much as they do you.
