Hank's reaction to seeing me cry for the first time
The past few days have been emotional for me as I approached one year since my Dad's death. Yesterday I just lost it after reading a beautiful tribute to him from one of his friends. Hank immediately came and jumped on my lap, he put his head on my shoulder and nuzzled me and licked my tears away as gently as he could. He sat there on my lap while I cried and comforted me, even when I finished crying he remained on my lap staring into my face with adoration & licking my hands. He's an amazing puppy & I love him so much!

- Tell us about yourself: I adopted a Dutch Shepherd mix (without knowing what she was) from the SPCA here in Victoria BC and am now trying to learn everything I can about this breed. My husband and I work from home most of the time so I thought it was time to get a puppy! We have his 2 boys here half the time and we wanted a nice family dog.
Sugar looks like a miniature Dutch Shepherd with floppy ears, and has every ounce of DS traits in her little body!
I hope to learn from other DS owners and share doggy experiences. - Location: Victoria BC

I hate those grief attacks! So sorry for your loss...
What a sweetie Hank is. That was a wonderful story. I'm glad you have him to be with you during a difficult time.
