We used to have a black lab that was his best friend. Unfortunately she passed away recently and he’s been pretty upset. So I gave him my black lab stuffed animal and now he brings it everywhere and plays with it after dinner like he used to our old dog.

Do you know how many dogs I’ve met that get scared or anxious around men because in their previous home men hit them? A lot, and they are very protective of the women who have adopted them now.

Men who are violent towards women are often violent towards animals as well. They think we’re all chattel. If a man wants you to choose between your dog or cat or him, dump the guy. Those animals will love you for the rest of your life, loyal and true.
