Dogs are from heaven. They are full of unconditional love. When my bulldog of 12 years collapsed, he found a way to say goodbye. He gave me a very distinct wink of his eye and then departed peacefully as I felt his last gasp of air. It's been five years and I still treasure every memory.
I, too, believe that Poet has been a very long work-in-progress, but the kind of painstaking work that they have done have made the wait almost eternal, but it will show us the love, deservedly so.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
