Comment from Janice Canerdy
Pets, especially long-time pets, are not JUST animals; they are friends and family, and they are capable of deep love and loyalty. Your poem is so lovely and heartwarming! I enjoyed it.

Awwwww. I was getting all empty at the thought of your love for your significant other and (surprise!) Lillian is your "puppy love!"
How sweet is this?

Comment from K.L. Rockquemore
I love your poem. I'm curious to know how old Lillian is. My lab Sienna, is 9 and is my support animal. She's with me all the time, truly my best friend. Did you find her at a shelter? Or a Breeder? What breed is she?

Lillian is my support animal also! She is an English Mastiff and I got her from a rescue. She is with me all the time too. She?s my big baby. She?s 7 now. Thanks so much for the excellent review!

I can tell immediately the bond based on love that you and Lillian share, and it's so special. I love your description of what she does and how you respond. People who don't like animals, don't like people either. I wish you many more years with your sweet dog.
Best wishes in the contest.
Respectfully, Jan

I can relate. I still refer to my late dog Lainie as the love of my life. Treasure every moment you have with your baby. Thank you for sharing this with us. Best wishes to you (and Lillian).

Thank you so much and I do. She is my heart. ❤️
Comment from Liz O'Neill
This is a great imagery, with a personified metaphor: "and my heart squeezes. " Now, you've got the reader drawn in wondering why you say such a thing: "But yours will be shorter than mine." The melancholy for the reader is lifted. Well done.

Well, you made me smile. I really do enjoy when people write about their affection for their pet, especially dogs, with whom we humans seem to be able to develop a very special bond. A lovely verse, beautifully written.
