I truly love my Boo Boo Bear, (Her name is Boo, but you get it), and my world will crush when she goes...I can't imagine it. <br />My heart breaks with yours, and it rejoices at the same time...<br />love you all.<br />- angAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00648993710583530300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24028336.post-4025012971790862812014-08-25T21:36:59.162-04:002014-08-25T21:36:59.162-04:00Sweetness!!!

Not only have they been SO good to and for me, but they have helped ten different children adapt to life in my home over the years. They have a way of knowing which child is hurting and finding their way to their bedside. But when that child is asleep, they always, always, always come back to their mama. <br /><br />I am so glad that you were brave enough to get a new pet!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16620746935128128727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24028336.post-51792029430748951402014-08-24T21:18:59.211-04:002014-08-24T21:18:59.211-04:00Congrats on the new addition.

She's an amazing companion and we love love love her. We've invested in an IRobot to help with the hair she's leaving behind, but she's worth it.

If you ever do need to go that way, I highly recommend the bichon frize breed. So sweet, so gentle with kids, don't shed etc. They're actually used for nursing home companions.

We had to give him the difficult gift of love 6 weeks before getting matched with our daughter who was born in China. He was an amazing dog for us, a rescue who rescued us while God prepared my heart for my daughter. Prayers for a healthy grief. May Sailor bring you comfort and much joy.
