Man writes heartfelt post for dog on birthday
The man shared how he felt about the dog and wished the pet a happy birthday.
His post read:
“Happy birthday Bestie! I can’t believe you are the big 2 already, you came into my life at 2 months and you changed my world. A lot of people don’t know why I adopted Duke…the truth is I lost a family member and my mental health was a mess, I didn’t know how to deal with it.
“Duke came into my life and taught me how to love selflessly, the last two years we have grown together. While I was teaching you commands, tricks and potty training you, you were healing me mentally and teaching me how to be patient; teaching me it’s ok to hurt and to make mistakes. Your little paws has changed my life forever.”
