He Makes Up For It All

All the barking, all the biting, the snipping, the whining
He makes up for it all, with a wag of his tail, or the soft way he lays beside me, wherever I go.

All the extra work, the sleepless nights, the chewed pieces of shoes
He makes up for it, with that happy face, those cute floppy ears and the soft snore of his peaceful sleep.

All the mess, the fuss, the doggie smells he has brought into our life…. He makes up for it all with the sound of the laugh coming from my sweet girl as she giggles and wiggles on the floor with him.

He makes up for it all – I am so thankful. He is starting to fill the dog-shaped hole in my soul.

The paws he has to fill are huge, no one can replace my Jake, but my HB is trying to do it.

He is determined to make up for it all.
