The Importance of Pets

Hi R and other BB friends






Doggy Land
From Memoirs of a Babyboomer - 1970's
Importance of Pets
"It impresses me the power of companionship, the pivotal support that pets can provide in life. They share our emotional territory without judgement or blame. It is that atmosphere of acceptance - of wordless cheer- that is so deeply comforting even transforming."Pets" Barney Bardsley

Approaching thirty but with a few years still to go, and childless, meant that if you had a dog it was considered to be a child substitute; let alone having two Golden Retrievers, which absolutely consolidated that belief. Gigi was a gift from a friend and named already, was a lovely pet and was much loved by all.

She was joined by Nordi, a more robust dog which we purchased after checking out pedigrees etc. I almost feel that I should use 'who' rather than 'which' as she actually believed that she was a human.
I understand why people, particularly when our children have moved out, nuture their dogs almost as though they were another child.
I look forward to some photos of your three, Renotta, but also the other three offspring I missed out on.
Looking chilly today!
Love C

Welcome to my journey as I photograph something I created everyday for a year... Renotta
