My first dog, he has given me a lot of anxious moments because there are so many things about dogs that I don’t know. At times, he has made me want to tear my hair out with frustration. But this is all nothing compared to the joy and comfort he has brought me. He melts my heart with his soft brown eyes. It fills me with warmth when he leans in against me. His boundless joy brightens my every day. So happy birthday, my sweet little rogue, and many happy returns!
