National Dog Day

Here in the USA. My Gypsy dog is always honored and loved. She owns the sofa!

A poem about a beloved dog by Mary Oliver

He puts his cheek against mine and make small, expressive sounds.

And when I’m awake or awake enough he turns upside down, his four paws in the air and his eyes dark and fervent.

Tell me you love me, he says.

Tell me again.

Could there be a sweeter arrangement? Over and over he gets to ask it.
I get to tell.

Hope you get some dog love today.
