Anytime I am stressed, I cuddle up with Daisy, smell her fur, kiss her, hug her, tell her how much I love her and talk to her. Of course I love my husband and Perry but the bond between Daisy and me is something special. When I was growing up we had cocker spaniels and they really were my mothers dogs, then after we got married we had two doxies, then a bassett, a boxer and a rottweiler and Kona our schnauzer, these were all our children's dogs. It was about my birthday time and my husband said I want to get you your very own dog for your birthday, any one you want. I wanted a Schnauzer and they were so hard to find., so we went out to this Horse Farm and there was Daisy, scrawny, overbite, last of the litter, noone wanted her, the kids were dragging her around like a rag doll, I told Don I don't care how much she wants, I want that Dog, so he got her for me and her papers read "Jackies Miss Daisy"
Then Don wanted another dog and he got Perry, technically Daisy is mine and Perry is his but of course we love them both equally.
