Dog Lovers

The world that we inhabit is
comprised of many communities
of like-minded people whose
sensibilities and sentiments
transcend race, heritage, culture
in shared values of their wide
embrace of the natural world
in general and their love of dogs
in particular. Among them, 
there are no strangers. In the
company of companions of a
completely different species that
complement our lives there is
instant rapport and trust. Each
can trust the other to appreciate
the pleasure and deep dependency
shared between human and dog
communicating and sharing
gladness. And when despair
befalls one in bereavement, 
instant comfort radiates toward
the one deprived in a too-early
death by those whose depth of
understanding evolves from the
background of like experience.
