I am sure many can attest to this especially nowadays. And you will never feel more loved as you will when you have a pet. Don’t believe me? Take a look at the following pictures and you’ll understand.

One year ago, I traveled to a dog shelter in hopes of finding a friend for life. The moment he locked eyes with me that day, he knew he wanted me to take him home. The manager of the shelter warned me that my dog Ace was a very active dog and a whip for a tail. I never knew how much energy this dog had in him!

Everyday this dog wants a longer and longer walk, and thanks to him, I am now able to give him those walks. In the picture on the left, I weighed in at 348 pounds. The picture on the right, I weighed in this morning at 265. It’s remarkable how much one decision to give a friend a home and another chance at a family gave myself a longer and healthier chance at life.

Thank you Ace. You are my good boy. I’m glad you came home with me
