I haven't posted in a long time

[get the red out]

I didn't come to DU often when Biden was President because I didn't want to see the media turn on him, then I forgot how to post pics. I didn't even introduce Retro as a puppy! And the girl in my Avatar, Layla, just turned 15. I am grateful to the Universe that they are beside me every single day (even when Retro plays keep-away with my shoes).

1. Wonderful news!

Where would we be without our fur babies?

18. I might not be here

I have crashed into horrible depression twice in Layla's life, my thinking was rocky until I would look at her.

5. It's good to hear from you

Thank you, for sharing pics of your best friends and loyal companions. I'm happy for you that you have the two of them. Especially in these whirlwind time of debauchery, from on high.

I'd be a basket case without my pets. They will always carry you through.

21. Yes they do

My and my ex adopted Layla when we got home from my Dad's funeral. I needed a small being dependant on me feeding her and cleaning up her pee, LOL.

We need all the pet love we can get.

Thx for sharing & welcome back!

12. Thank you for sharing your beautiful pups.

Their love shows in their eyes. The eye to eye interaction releases oxytocin, the "love hormone" which is so beneficial to both the dog and their human.

14. I feel it

I can feel the oxytocin "whoosh" when I look into their eyes.

[StarryNite]

15. It's powerful.

Her majesty is giving me a talking to in this picture, probably because I have that rectangular light-flashing thing pointing at her! She hates pics, LOL.
