Celebrating Our Dogs

I was recently contacted here on the Dogs Topic by a man wanting to share his very special dog, Endal. Endal is a beautiful yellow labrador retriever but after reading their story, I'm convinced Endal has a mind far superior to many humans even these days and certainly more kindness, empathy and servitude than many of us.

From what comes across my desk weekly -dogs needing homes because they've been abandoned, service dogs having to be euthanized because they've outgrown their usefulness, dogs being fought (and taught to do this by humans) then later being euthanized because the politicians think this is an easy out, dogs being abused, killed by the thousands in China for a couple of cases of rabies outbreak, and the list goes on -it was amazingly refreshing to hear from Allen about his special dog Endal.

In fact the entire UK knows about Endal and he is a representative of the big dog event in the UK, Crufts. I'll post a couple of links here for you to read about Endal and then do some searches on the net and see what comes up. Endal is truly truly a remarkable dog who is giving his entire life to be of service to his master, Allen. Really though, they are best friends! We could stand to learn much from dogs about self-sacrifice and serving with unconditional love.

Some places in the USA that are recognizing our dogs and doing much justice for them are:

National Dog Day

American Dogs of Distinction

and The Online Dog Expo of which I'm proud to be a part.

Here are some links about Allen and Endal:

Thank you Endal, for showing the world how awesome are our dogs!
