All dogs deserve a Place

To the rest of us it’s a simple dog bed. But to her it’s her Place.

When she needs a break from the stresses of the world, this is where she’ll go.

All we have to do is say the word, place, and she’ll jump in, spin herself around, and plop down in a tightly wound ball of fur.

Sometimes she’ll chew on the increasingly frayed corner of the pillow before she flops her head over the edge and settles down. She’ll lie very still as she pretends to be sleeping, but those giant furry eyebrows of her always give her wandering eyes away.

She’s smart, but not very subtle.

I’ll often watch her as she sighs heavily and settles into the gently worn fabric. I’ll wonder what she’s thinking about, if she’s happy, if she knows how much we adore her.

And I’ll quietly wish we could all find our own version of Calli’s little place.

Because everyone deserves refuge from the storm.
