A very heart-warming story about a young girl and her pet dog. 

I caught the trailers while watching The Dark Knight and my children and I promised that we will not watch this movie in the cinemas. Somehow, we know tears will flow. True enough, when we were watching the DVD at home one night, my youngest son was crying away because of one scene.

Many people think keeping pets is a fun thing. Yes. It is! But like all things we grow to love, once an attachment and connection is made, you will find it pretty difficult to let go of it. Is it any surprise why some people choose not to have pets?

10 promises to my dog… if your pet could talk to you…

  • Give me time to understand what you want of me.
  • Place your trust in me. It’s crucial to my well-being
  • Be aware that however you treat me I’ll never forget it.
  • Before you scold me for being lazy, ask yourself if something might be bothering me.
  • Talk to me sometimes. Even if I don’t understand your words, I do understand  your voice when it’s speaking to me.
  • Remember before you hit me, I have teeth that could hurt you but that I choose not to bite you.
  • Take care of me when I get old.
  • You have your work, your entertainment and your friends. I have only you.
  • My life is likely to last 10 to 15 years. Any separation from you will be painful for me.
  • Go with me on difficult journeys. Everything is easier for me if you are there. Remember I love you …
