Quote

Quote
Our pets are the kids who never leave home, and that's absolutely fine by us because these kids don't ask for the keys to the car, don't turn up drunk at two in the morning, and don't complain if you turn their bedroom into a home gym. Their presence in times of upheaval and transition acts as a touchstone, a reminder of normalcy, of comfort, and the certainty of a love that can get you through.

Burt’s eyes may be sad and brown and tangled in a spider web of wrinkles, but I reckon he’s lived my version of a perfect life – a life full of dogs.
