Reading emotions?

[Gracie, Jade, & Barkley]

As women sometimes do, I was having an emotional morning.  Standing in the blustery subzero darkness in my pjs and overstuffed down coat waiting for Gracie to do her biz, tears rolled down my face. Wishing for her to hurry up but oblivious to what she was actually doing, I look down and Gracie was sitting there in front of me lifting her paw and pawing at my leg - as if to say it will be ok, Mom. Kind of like a child will do when they see their mom all flustered and rush to give them a hug.

It might just be coincidence, but it made my heart feel good.

Love this dog even when she's being ornery!

That's really sweet and touching... They really are great companions and they make it so easy to share our emotions with them...it's that type of relationship where we don't have to speak...they just get us

That's so sweet! That little face would brighten any day.

I don't think it was a coincidence. These doodles can be very intuitive, sometimes to the point of being scary! LOL I'm glad you have Gracie to help you through the tough times. :)

Doodles are a great comfort.

I think it is intentional, no coincidence. Today a woman on the trail said she feels her dog is her soulmate.

They love us, they care, they don't want us to be sad---and when we are they want us to feel better.

Good dog, Gracie!

Awww, how sweet of Gracie. She is adorable, love that little face. These Doodles truly feel our emotions and feelings and so devoted to their owners. Hopefully your day got much better and someday the sun will come out again!  LOL
