I have been missing my dogs a lot recently and wishing that I could bring them to school with me to snuggle with during these winter days and nights. So I thought I would make a dog appreciation article in honor of all those dogs that are waiting for their humans to get a break from school so that they can come home and see them.

1. To one of my very special pups who has been my A1 since day 1

2. To my favorite fluff ball

3. To the pup that I know will find his way into my bed

4. To this loyal follower

5.To this pug who can't wait to spend the summer with you

6. To this little guy who will take a nap until you get back

7. To this pup who can hear you but can't see you and doesn't know why

8. To this pup waiting for you at the fence

9. To this pup on his way to get his girl

10. To the dog who promises to keep your bed warm while you're away

11. And finally Spooky who might not be a dog, but would love for you to come home to her, along with so many other kitties who can be adopted here
