Dog pictures with Santa

Dog pictures with Santa Clause, now that is entertaining! As a fundraiser for our local humane Society, I assisted with taking pictures with Santa. It was cold. There were dogs. There was Santa.

There were also gifts, given by the dogs. It always amazes me how true and genuine dogs are. They never try to manipulate, judge, nor chastise. They simply are joyful to be alive, and think nothing of what is coming next. Yet humans hold the power to destroy. Yet it is this time of year that our thoughts turn to the goodness in people, and dogs have an innate sense to recognize it.

After enduring hours of cold, a little dog warmed me up. You see, even dogs love the idea of Santa! The gift of a dog’s kiss is worth more than jewelry or gold, for it give us a smile and warmth inside, a connection with something deeper than ourselves, and for that we are appreciative!
