dogdaze

I went home today after work and crashed, something I rarely ever get to do anymore since the children came along. After staying up late the past several days and caring for my daughter who has a stomach bug, I am totally drained of energy. My quick nap, however, did wonders for me.

I didn’t even notice that my dogs were trying to push me out of my own bed or that Bella (a rat terrier-mutt mix) was sleeping on my head again. It was funny to wake up surrounded by my four-legged babies. I could tell they have missed me.

My dog nap was just what I needed, not just for the sleep but for the stress relief. It’s amazing that no matter how stressed I am, spending a couple of hours with my dogs not only de-stresses me but relaxes me tremendously.

Who needs therapy when you have a dog?
