Never apologize for treating your dog like a baby. In a world that forces you to be tough, having a creature that lets you be soft, nurturing, and vulnerable is a blessing. You are lucky if one loves you, you are luckier still if you love each other.

I do not work for the shelter. Just been sharing MELIA for awhile now. The shelter does post videos on Facebook, Instagram and X. It's under "Adopt MELIA & Friends". I only have Bluesky. I post videos as I receive them. Check her out below. 💗

I also meet a lot of active, happy, engaged seniors. I love asking them what their secret is, and it's always two things:

1: Stay moving. At a certain you either stretch or walk daily or you can't move. Start NOW.

2: Sometimes to care about. Garden. Grandkids. Pets. Doesn't matter.

A shelter received a donation of stuffed toys and let each dog pick 1.
How selfless. They each only pick 1.

No one is seeing the silent suffers in this. A pet is family. A lot on snap budget what little money they have to make sure their pet is taken care of. It would break my heart to see shelters overwhelmed because of this. I also fear what happens when it gets desperate.
