Memories of my childhood. Once you connect with nature, it is with you the rest of your life. I wish everyone could experience this, especially as a child.
Raising a dog from puppy through adulthood is something every child (but especially a boy) should do. When the child hits 18 or so, that dog's life will be almost over. Having to make decisions as to what's best for the dog puts things in perspective that nothing else can.
It's a pain that they'll never get over, but it's also a love they can't forget, either.
If he's lucky, he'll have maybe four dogs in his lifetime. My third one is slowing down pretty dramatically now, but is the happiest of dogs when he's around people. I really am not looking forward to that day.
