The Dogs of my Life



mischief maker
joy of life
protecter
my love, my life

sandpaper thief
Daddy's girl
Her life's creed
adapt, adapt

True gentleman
Always good
Kindest heart
Gentle giant

Mommy's baby
spoiled most
sharing love
always playful

My life measured in dog years
and filled with their love
