My love for dogs began with my first one, Duchess. My mom said she was part Samoyed and part handsome stranger (didn't know the other breed). A loveable loyal dog. My neighbor worked with a shelter and often brought puppies home until they could find a permanent place. On my visits there I had played with them, held and loved them. She also had a few of her own dogs. I use to let them chase me around her backyard and pretend they were sharks and climb her tree to escape. Puppies would lick me and tug on my hair when I laid down on the floor. When I got up they clung onto my legs by wrapping their paws around them. They seemed to want me back on the ground for play. Puppies have a smell too a distinct newborn scent. So adorable. Now years later, I have a Samoyed of my own. She is loyal and loveable like my first dog. Dogs love you unconditionally from the moment they lay eyes on you. Wanting to please you and be loved. They are pure joy. The picture shows Bianca playing in the snow which she is fond of. Howling her song. She makes me smile by just being there. Thank God for Dogs.

Here's a link to a blurb about my current e-book - it's a dog-friendly romantic comedy about a woman getting a divorce who uses her dog as a guide to get more of what she wants out of life.

Take Care,
Colleen
I love Samoyeds...they are so beautiful, as is Bianca. I'm a Golden Retriever person. My angel Samantha died a while back and I will soon be rescuing another. Nice to talk to a dog person...Nancy.
