they do not discriminate.........

I was in town yesterday and i saw a man and his dog. No big deal you say, you see that every day. The dog was happy as a lark leading the way, pulling on his lead. Every now and then the dog would look back at the man with love in his eyes. Total devotion, happiness and companionship was shared betwen them. The dog did not seem to notice or care that his master was different. His master was the unkempt batchelor, the lonely guy you see shuffling along in his walking frame heading to to the shops or perhaps back home. The person you would avoid because he was a bit slow and, I'm ashamed to admit this, not the person you would want to be seen with, incase others thought he was your friend.
This is when I noticed my failings and appreciated the dogs doting affection. He did not care, he loved his master, this man who shared his world with him. Dogs are wonderful creatures, much better than us two legged creatures.
