How Roo Feels

MarsandMe · 11-22-2005, 08:09 PM

Today my oldest daughter Julie and I took Roo and Ditz with us to the local Petstore. People tend to flock to our dogs especially Roo because of his long coat which isn't seen often at all.

So I had Roo on a leash and Julie had Dtiz on hers when anouther mother and daughter come up and ask to pet Ditz and Roo. While they were petting them the mother was asking me the typical questions:
Airn't these pointers?
What Kind?
How are they with kids?
Are they very hyper?
If this long coated one a birth defect or what?

Why we were chatting I kept looking over to see the little girl just petting Roo just in aww it seemed of how he looked and felt. The mother caught my gaze and smiled at her daughter. "He's beautiful isn't he Jenny?" and the little girl just looked up at her mom with all this emotion and excitement and goes "Mama he feel like touching an angel!". That truly just made my heart burst with joy, pride, and understanding it was just one of those "out of the mouths of babes" things as she had to be 5 or 6.

I just had to share that.

doesnt it make your heart swell when you hear a child showing such gentleness toward an animal.

And I am sure your baby is an angel

( mine are)
