YES, I have had dogs since I was born. I have a baby picture surrounded by poodles. I have never been without a dog. We have a beagle right now and he is 14 years old. He follows us from room to room, he lets us know that we need to start cooking dinner and he will howl when I say “We got the house to ourselves” I push my hand up towards ceiling and he howls & howls. Hubby will say that’s enough, and I can whisper and do my hands to sneak one in and he HOWLS again, hehehe.
I have a friend whose dogs bring their dog dish to her when it’s empty! It’s so cute!
I do! His name is Buster and we adopted him. We have a cat named Murphy too. They are both spoiled! Murphy hangs with Buster. I think Murphy thinks he is part dog. They are both 14 years old.
You have describe your dog really well. I can visualise him as I read your post. I can tell by reading your post that you really love your dog so much and you have a special bond with him. He seems to be a very friendly dog.
