What sacrifices have you made in life?
For fifteen years after my first dog passed, I decided against getting another companion animal,even though “Silver” had been brilliant, and it was heartbreaking not to have him. I knew that I was going to be by myself and working full-time, so it wasn’t fair.
I sacrificed what I must say now is an essential and enjoyable part of my life. I made the right decision, however ,as I really did not have the wherewithal to look after a dog.I wish more people realised this before jumping in both feet to acquire one.They need you and they need your time.
I’m pleased to say that once my partner and I were in a position to spend the time,money, and effort in having a dog.Tedi came into our lives and he is nothing like “Silver” but he is a brilliant dog too.
However,being dogless all those years was a sacrifice, which I’m glad I made.
