Christmas Reflection

First, allow me to wish you and your loved ones a very Merry Christmas. For my family, Christmas is truly one of our favorite times of the year. Lately I’ve been thinking about some fond dog-related Christmas memories. I thought I’d share one with you, with Christmas now just days away.

Our dear Mocha was laid to rest well over a year ago. This awesome Chocolate Lab was as close as close could get to our family. She was very much apart of our Christmas celebrations. On our last Christmas that we shared together, of course Mocha had plenty of presents. She had somehow learned through the years how to open presents. Perhaps because she knew tasty treats were often inside.
There she was with wagging tail, and an excited look in her eyes, opening her presents. It was rather comical watching her tear the wrapping paper off with her mouth. It always brought a smile to our face to watch her do this. Since she was a food lover, you can probably guess what was inside! Mocha was so good at unwrapping presents, we allowed her to help the rest of us on this particular occasion too!

We miss you Mocha, and think of you often!

Merry Christmas from Focused Dog!
