The day I adopted Mason, my plott hound, my life changed forever. I know it may sound crazy to some people, but we developed a bond stronger than I have ever had with anyone. It is one we did not form with words, and maybe that is why it is so pure. I know when I look into his eyes he knows exactly how I am feeling.
Lately, I haven’t been the happiest person. I haven’t smiled or laughed or wanted to play with him like normal. That doesn’t matter to him though. He still wags his tail and jumps up smiling every single time I walk in the room. He is here for me no matter what I do without judgement.
In today’s world, it is hard not to be judged for everything you do. It’s hard to find even find one person who doesn’t judge you and I am lucky enough to have found that in Mason. He listen’s to me complain about the dumbest things, let’s me talk out my feelings when I don’t know what to do and licks away my tears when I cry (now who else would do that ha!).
Mason is truly the one who keeps me going when I don’t think I can anymore. His wagging tail and wet kisses gives me reason smile even on my darkest days.
We all deserve someone as wonderful as Mason to lick away our tears and I hope you all are lucky enough to find that person like I have.
Dog Mom Hack #2: ALWAYS embrace a kiss. Even when it is a slobbery, wet one.
