Patch!

Our friends got a beautiful dog just over a year ago. His name is Patch and he rules.

Patch, Kristin and I have become quite good buddies and we often "share" him (that's code for stealing) with his owners ;)

Patch is a super well behaved Brittany Spaniel who loves to run, cuddle and chase squirrels. He brings a lot of joy to my life and I feel really blessed every time I get to hang out with him. There's just something about having a pooch around the house that makes me smile. I like being responsible for him (responsibility is one my greatest strengths according to Strengths Finder 2.0), I like having a running buddy, I love watching him slurp his water all over the place and I don't even mind picking up his poop. I think I've fallen in love a little bit…but how could you not!

Patch loves you too! BD said last time you dropped him off he was wanting to follow you out the door. Any time you need a Patch fix, don't be afraid to visit!
