To all the people who smile and talk with my dog and me while we’re on our walks. It makes my heart smile to see how happy you are after a visit with her. It seems odd to be thanking you for spreading your happiness but I really appreciate it. It makes my day to see you walk away with a smile on your face and an extra bounce in your step. —Grateful Dog-Mom

you’re welcome, i always feel bad for the dogs that love people and are ignored. watching their heads turn and look sadly at the loss of a head pat or a lunatic talking like a baby^^
