My Dear Miss Duchess Rose

"I am most pleased and delighted to introduce myself to you. My name is Bennie Bybee. I feel sure I am a bit of an older gentlemale than you, sweet ladyship. My life does have its miracles, for which I am eternally grateful. My first human was a little girl. It was easy for me to make her happy because she lived in a very unhappy home. I didn't quite understand, but I knew how to make her happy. What I didn't know was, I was about to face my biggest trial of life. The little girl human would go to live with her mother, but I would not. Her mother allowed her to visit the father human on some weekends. So we got to walk and play. However, those times would end. My male human would seldom feed me or give water to me. I hung to my canine wisdom that told me a change would come. My human just kept bringing home other dogs that seemed to be lost. There were four of us who would cuddle under a vent that would blow hot air from something that made a noise from inside. Then hot summer winds made us very, very thirsty. My female human that worked in an office at 2700 N. Portland. That is my present human, took me to her office. I sort of became famous. Humans came to the office just to see me! I am sooo... loved! I thank that all-loving canine in the sky. Humans are kind of funny. They must see things backwards. I've seen them bow their heads and make soft sounds to a Being they call 'God...' and we all know its 'Dog.' But I wouldn't tell them. They are happy the way it is, and names are just names. My apologies for going on so, Miss Duchess Rose. As my human always says, 'This too shall pass.' We don't have to worry in the 'now.' See there? They did it again... we know we've 'won.' Farewell!" -- Your Faithful, Bennie Bybee   |  View or Add Comments (0 Comments)   |   Receive updates ( subscribers)  |   Unsubscribe
