@UnderLockDown Even the cat says so!

@Bumbles I've had several dogs, loved them all. Becoming a cat guy was somewhat accidental.
One dog in particular was just so in tune to me we had our own language. My Heeler was AMAZING!!! I could tell him what to do from 20 feet away and never speak a word. Camping and hiking was even better with such a great dog. Many times I have taken a nap in an open field on a sunny day with my Heeler watching over me. He saved me from charging bulls on a regular basis. He didn't much like young children, but he would take extra care and give special attention to a special needs child, he just knew it was different.
He could figure things out that he had never been trained to do! He learned to spell several words, and even figured out how to use 'yes' and 'no' responses to get what he wanted or to relay information.
He was the kind of dog that convinced people to get a dog of their own.
😂 He also rolled in fresh cow shit and came home green, or sprayed by a skunk, or playing with a nasty smelling rotten thing...🤷♂️
I cried for days when he passed away, it was hard!! I still miss him so much.
It was worth it!! I had experiences and love that I would otherwise have missed out on.
They call them Man's Best Friend for very good reason!!
