Are they worth it? How many times daily do they make you smile, lower your blood pressure, and generally make you feel good? Always welcome, ready to go anywhere, any time, do anything with no complaints, knows you and likes you anyway. Sounds like the definition of friendship.
I have often looked into the eyes of a dog and wondered if they do not understand us far more then we could think possible and yet they have wisely chosen to observe rather than comment. They do make the worlds best companions and I credit my Mothers 94+ years with having the constant companionship of one or more dogs, that position currently held by a fun loving Brittney Spaniel named Maggie (obtained from a rescue group of course).
