Our time with Belle..................
We have some clients in Stevenson Ranch, CA, which we have their home listed for sale.
The property has many nice features.
Meet Belle.
Belle would always come to greet us at the door whenever we had a showing.
Half the reason is because she was happy to see you, and the other half is because of the "watch-dog" in her.
Sometimes Belle could be a little too friendly, so most of the time if we have a showing on the home, Belle would need to spend a few minutes in the garage while the buyers and their agent would view the home.
Getting Belle to cooperate wasn't always an easy task, but for those times when she would be a little too sly, we would have to go nuclear and bust out the doggie snacks to coax her into the garage!
Belle is one of those dogs with a great disposition. A great "Pal" dog as I would call it.
During our last showing on the home a couple of days ago, our client informed us that Belle had passed away.
It was such a shock to us, and as every pet owner knows, it's just not easy dealing with the loss of a pet.
Yes, their life spans are significantly shorter than ours, but nonetheless the void that occurs once their gone takes some time to deal with.
As we all know, dogs are 100% unconditional love and companionship. Two qualities that are always in high demand, and sometimes hard to find in other humans.
They have a special sense that we know exists.
I can remember with my little guys the times where I've been sick and having to rest in bed. They somehow know and will stay right next to you as if to say "I'm right here with you until you're back on your feet again"
Just wanted to write this blog and give a shout out to all of the pet owners out there and maybe we can all take just a second to think about Belle as you see her picture. I truly believe that every living thing has a spirit that moves on to the next plane of existence once they leave here, and that a special connection happens when you think of them.
Maybe as a result of reading this blog you can either do something exceptionally nice for your pet, or perhaps make a donation to one of your animal rescue organizations.
It actually is comforting knowing that Belle had a really nice life with our clients. We know it was a happy life for the 8 years spent with them and their children.
Good energy and positive light to our clients, and of course to all of my blog monsters out there.
Peace.....
