Love is in the eye of the pup

So here it is Sunday morning and the day seems to be beautiful. As I write this Bruiser is looking at Sandy (our over 10 year old Cocker Spaniel) with a great deal of lust and romance in his eyes. She has fought off his advances more times than I care to mention. He, in true man form, refuses to take no for an answer. He is sitting at my feet now whining like a little baby because she would rather sleep than have him smell her constantly. I know this may sound crazy, but you have to wonder if the animal world gets it right. Think about it, here he is a young, virile, exciting, physically fit bulldog interested in the one who taught him about going outside, not barking in the night, she looked in on him constantly when he was a baby. Does he see an old bag, who has been spayed, and is way past her prime? No way! He sees someone to rest his giant chin on, to snuggle up with. Do you think this is what Ashton sees in Demi? I mean, come on. Doggie on doggie, they don't care what color the other dog's hair is, if they have overly big bone structure, who has the longer tail, etc. They just see a warm body and someone to communicate with. I think with dogs, you never age. I think its a beautiful thing!
