When a man named Noah started building a boat in the middle of the desert, everybody laughed. They thought he was daft. But Noah wasn’t listening to them, he was listening to the God of the Hebrews, who said to build a boat. So Noah built a boat. Noah called his boat an ark. When he finished it, he rounded up all the animals, two by two, to travel on his ark. People laughed at Noah’s possums and panthers and penguins. They laughed at his cheetahs and chinchillas, giraffes and gazelles, and rhinoceroses and hippopotamuses. Into the ark went all the animals, two by two. Pretty soon, it started to rain. It rained, and it poured, and it rained some more. People stopped laughing and the ark started floating. Noah and his family and all the animals, two by two, rode safely on the waters. They sailed for 40 days and 40 nights.When the rains stopped, out of the ark came Noah and his family and all of the animals, two by two. Except one. No one could find the little dog. Noah searched everywhere. He looked on the first deck. He looked on the second deck, then the third deck. Finally, in the farthest corner in the lowest deck, he found the little dog. The dog was shivering and standing with his nose pressed hard against the side of the boat.“Come here, little dog!” called Noah. “It’s time to come out! Here, doggie, doggie!” The little dog wouldn’t move. Noah gently pulled him away.“What’s this?” said Noah. “A hole in the ark! The ark might have sunk! Little dog! You kept us safe- me, my family, and all of the animals, two by two! With your little nose!”The little dog was proud. But mostly, he was hungry. “Little dog,” said Noah, as he pulled out a juicy bone, “so all the world and all the generations will know your great deed, your nose will always be cold and wet, just as it is today.”That’s how the dog got his cold, wet nose. When you feel it, remember the little dog who used his nose to protect Noah, his family, and all of the animals, two by two.~Stanley Holloway
Upon entering the little country store, the stranger noticed a sign saying “DANGER! BEWARE OF DOG!” posted on the glass door. Inside he noticed a harmless old hound dog asleep on the floor besides the cash register. He asked the store manager, “Is THAT the dog folks are supposed to beware of?”“Yep, that’s him,” he replied.The stranger couldn’t help but be amused. “That certainly doesn’t look like a dangerous dog to me. Why in the world would you post that sign?”“Because,” the owner replied, “before I posted that sign, people kept tripping over him.”

A local business was looking for office help. They put a sign in the window, stating the following: “HELP WANTED. Must be able to type, must be good with a computer and must be bilingual. We are an Equal Opportunity Employer.” A short time afterwards, a dog trotted up to the window, saw the sign and went inside. He looked at the receptionist and wagged his tail, then walked over to the sign, looked at it and whined. Getting the idea, the receptionist got the office manager. The office manager looked at the dog and was surprised, to say the least. However, the dog looked determined, so he lead him into the office. Inside, the dog jumped up on the chair and stared at the manager. The manager said, “I can’t hire you. The sign says you have to be able to type.” The dog jumped down, went to the typewriter and proceeded to type out a perfect letter. He took out the page and trotted over to the manager and gave it to him, then jumped back on the chair. The manager was stunned, but then told the dog, “The sign says you have to be good with a computer.” The dog jumped down again and went to the computer. The dog proceeded to demonstrate his expertise with various programs and produced a sample spreadsheet and database and presented them to the manager. By this time the manager was totally dumb-founded! He looked at the dog and said, “I realize that you are a very intelligent dog and have some interesting abilities. However, I *still* can’t give you the job.” The dog jumped down and went to a copy of the sign and put his paw on the sentences that told about being an Equal Opportunity Employer. The manager said, “Yes, but the sign *also* says that you have to be bilingual.” The dog looked at him straight in the face and said, “Meow.”

I said goodbye to my old friend Samantha today.
Samantha was not an obedience champion, or an agility star. Samantha was simply a dog, who was allowed to be a dog. A dog who liked to do dog things. In her day, she could have been a dock diving champion as she enjoyed spending her time diving from the dock at the cabin in the Ozarks. It was fulfilling for us to see the joy on her face as she would take that leap into the air after the frisbee. We didn’t need a trophy to tell us that she was a champion, because she was always a star in our eyes. She lived life to the fullest, and got the most out of each and every day. From digging holes in attempt to catch moles, to hunting snakes in the lawn and cashing them in for a treat, this dog enjoyed each and every day of her life as a dog.
Thank you my friend, for allowing us to share the last 16 and a half years with you. You will forever be missed, and will never be replaced. A dog like you comes along once in a lifetime.
