Thanks, Terrell. I loved reading about Twix and seeing her picture. I’ve mentioned before that I am a teacher - I’m also a lover of dogs and have had three Golden Retrievers who have given my family and I more love than you can imagine.

Thanks, Terrell. I loved reading about Twix and seeing her picture. I’ve mentioned before that I am a teacher - I’m also a lover of dogs and have had three Golden Retrievers who have given my family and I more love than you can imagine. My most special girl, Daisy, was the most intuitive dog I’ve ever owned. She knew when someone needed her and, like Twix, silently supported them. A friend who was visiting and was very sick and trying not to show it had Daisy at her side the entire night. I nearly died in 2010 and she never left me. When she died suddenly (of cancer at age 10) I was filled with grief and a need to honor her. I created a “Daisy Award” that my students can give to one another when a friend needs to be lifted up and supported or when someone does something “Daisy-like”. They give them weekly and we read them. I tell them the story of why she was special. I think it honors her to help my 10 year olds learn to spread love and kindness. Dogs ❤️
That is so incredibly touching, Tracy. What an amazing tribute to Daisy!! I think our dogs can sense a LOT more than we realize, as it seems clear from your story about your friend. Just wow.
