Why do I love old dogs? I've been blessed with many so far that belong to the 13 Club. That means a lot to me. And a few old dogs of mine that made 13 and 14 but I didn't know about the 13 Club at that time so I didn't get to enter them. I certainly know about an old dog. I love them dearly! MY OLD DOGS: There's nothing quite like an old dog. They're so precious in a variety of ways. By now, they know everything. Their souls are full of wisdom and love. When you look into their eyes you see the whole world right before you. Old eyes are a complete storybook. They can teach us everything there is to know about life in a broad-spectrum. All true. All pure. Just listen, and watch carefully. This wisdom will before you until fading eyes close...
