(from a 6-year-old).
Being a...Dog's Purpose? (from a 6-year-old).<br /><br />Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year-old<br />Irish Wolfhound named Belker. The dog's owners, Ron, his wife Lisa,<br />and their little boy Shane, were all very attached to Belker, and they<br />were hoping for a miracle.<br /><br />I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer. I told the family<br />we couldn't do anything for Belker, and offered to perform the<br />euthanasia procedure for the old dog in their home.<br /><br />As we made arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they thought it would be<br />good for six-year-old Shane to observe the procedure. They felt as<br />though Shane might learn something from the experience.<br /><br />The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my throat as Belker 's<br />family surrounded him. Shane seemed so calm, petting the old dog for<br />the last time, that I wondered if he understood what was going on.<br />Within a few minutes, Belker slipped peacefully away.<br /><br />The little boy seemed to accept Belker's transition without any<br />difficulty or confusion. We sat together for a while after Belker's<br />Death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal lives are<br />shorter than human lives.<br />Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up, ''I know why.''<br /><br />Startled, we all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next<br />stunned me. I'd never heard a more comforting explanation. It has<br />changed the way I try and live.<br /><br />He said,''People are born so that they can learn how to live a good<br />life -- like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?''<br />The Six-year-old continued,<br /><br />''Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don't have to stay as long.''<br /><br />Live simply.<br /><br />Love generously.<br /><br />Care deeply.<br /><br />Speak kindly.<br /><br />Remember, if a dog was the teacher you would learn things like:<br /><br />When loved ones come home, always run to greet them.<br /><br />Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride.<br /><br />Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure Ecstasy.<br /><br />Take naps.<br /><br />Stretch before rising.<br /><br />Run, romp, and play daily.<br /><br />Thrive on attention and let people touch you.<br /><br />Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.<br /><br />On warm days, stop to lie on your back on the grass.<br /><br />On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree.<br /><br />When you're happy, dance around and wag your entire body.<br /><br />Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.<br /><br />Be loyal.<br /><br />Never pretend to be something you're not.<br /><br />If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.<br /><br />When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by, and nuzzle<br />them gently.<br /><br />ENJOY EVERY MOMENT OF EVERY DAY!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Cookiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17219676096638732130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387975205672104946.post-670874357276074612015-10-29T06:13:20.427-07:002015-10-29T06:13:20.427-07:00Oh!

However, I am glad you 'let her go". It is so sad to see owners that can't bear to let their pets go and they suffer needlessly because of that fact. Our last little Misty-they said - we can give her a few more weeks but we can't tell if she will be in pain, or not-she was not eating so I knew she was already in pain. So hard to make those decisions but I let her go home to The Rainbow Bridge that day. So, I fully understand your heartbreak. You are in my prayers. xo DianaNanaDianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14298962791700019785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387975205672104946.post-69134865964066711642015-10-29T05:22:19.983-07:002015-10-29T05:22:19.983-07:00My heart goes out to you!
