Sleeping Soundly

I have just adopted a dog from the Humane Society.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

He seems to me to be about as good as dogs can get.  He is house trained, mellow, not hyper at all and is learning to be loved.  Because…I’m not entirely sure he was quite so loved before.

But, after several days at the pound, I thought he’d be so happy to be out of that situation.  And don’t get me wrong, he totally is happy.  I can tell…because he’s sleeping….and he’s sleeping like he hasn’t slept in ages.  Now…when I’m really happy, I show it by being energetic, bouncing off the walls, etc.  But not my new pup. 

He’s happy…that’s for sure.

But more than happy…I think he knows he’s safe.  And when you haven’t been safe in a really long time, it probably means you haven’t REALLYslept in a really long time.  And that just seems to take priority.

So here’s to my new friend, Mordecai. 

                                                                         

Rest well my friend.  I’m a little nervous about the 6 month old puppy energy that may be on the otherside of these deep sleeps you are having.  Bur for now, rest well.

You are safe.
