YOU ARE LOVED....192

This is my dog Finn.  
He is a lucky dog.  He has a nice home with his own creek where he can swim and fetch sticks all day long.
He has a boy.  Every dog should have a boy. (Or a girl.)
He has known his boy forever.
They have been through some tough times together...
In the beginning, he spent countless hours teaching his boy to share toys and play fetch...
Oh, but all of that hard work paid off in a couple of years....
His boy tells him "I love you Finn!  I love you 192."  I don't really know what that means, but it's a lot and Finn knows what it means.  It makes his tail stub wag when his boy tells him that he is loved 192.
Not all dogs are as lucky as Finn.  My good friend Tina at "What We Keep" also loves dogs....maybe even 192.  She is trying to help some dogs who are not as lucky as Finn.  Please click HERE and see what she is doing to help a couple of dogs have a chance at having a great life.
A blown and thrown kiss is about all your going to get from a boy who is 6, but Oh...to be loved 192!

    They sure love one another - can see on their faces ! Finn will miss the farm, especially the creek ! The SPCA is the only charity we give money/food and blankets to. My heart always breaks when I see the weekly "features" in our local paper, because I want to go fetch them all but we are already one over the limit {we have 5}. We do not get a lot of visitors and I think one of the reasons is that our rule is - this is our, and our dogs' home, fit in with them or stay away ;-)

    How sweet! Makes me miss having dogs and little boys around the house.

    And that creek! Do you know what I'd give to have a creek on my land? I can't believe your house hasn't sold already just based on having that beautiful bit of water flowing through It.

    Off to check out the other post!

    Heart warming post, Finn is adorable! Pets are one of the absolute best things about my home. Cat #1 is a former feral cat who, as a tiny kitten, lost it's mother. Cat # 2 is from the humane society. Cat #3 and Dog #1 are being fostered by me while my military brother is stationed overseas. I cannot imagine that menagerie not living at my house.

    Love this post Danni! Our furry friends bring such unconditional love into our lives. 4 out of our 5 cats are abandoned strays that we took in. They bring much joy and fun to us and our home. It breaks my heart whenever I hear of an animal being hurt or abandoned.

    I'll go check it out, I find it so hard to believe that people can mistreat dogs. Mine is utterly spoilt too, probably more so because he's a rescue dog, but he's just such a little bundle of joy.
    Finn and his boy are so adorable !

    A dog needs a boy, and a boy needs a dog. These 2 look like the perfect match!

    I love Finn 192 too. Maybe even 193! And I was choking back tears through this whole post because I was concerned about the fate of Finn. So happy to see is still going strong. Now I need to check out what Tina is up to!

    Lucky # 192! sweet story Danni. The Dog and HIS Boy - love it!! Our dirt road is the local "drop off point" for the unwanted dogs and cats for the county... Last week we picked up a puppy bulldog - she's deaf as a hammer, but now we love her - not sure how that's gonna pan out here in the country. So her name came naturally when we discovered her deafness when I said, Good Golly Miss Molly!
