I have a pet, a small one, one small 11 year old dog of 7 Kg. We pick up from a pet rescue house when he was one month old. He grew with us.
Unfortunately he has to spend some hours alone at home; we try to pet him (he is one member more of the family) as much as possible and he makes us a lot of company.
Well, there are a couple of days I arrive first at home and once I arrive home, I leave job material and bring him to the park for a walk.
It's not the first time he does not answer my call, I have to search him and I found him, on my bed, snoring...
A professional guardian dog.
For a future life, maybe I'd like to be a dog like this. :)
