If you know me at all you know my dog Seamus. There is not many things I love more than that smiley little mug of his. Some say that dogs resemble their owners so I guess it is fitting we found each other, click to read his adoption story. Awhile ago I did a guest post over at Steph’s called Dogs Are Better Than Most Humans and my feelings haven’t changed.
I also have some new thoughts and lessons too, so grab a cup of coffee and get ready to smile.
~ A dog can always find a way to make you smile!
~ They look at you adoringly as if you hung the moon!
~ Just a reminder that a little sass goes a long way!
~ An afternoon resting on the couch in your pajamas and a Netflix marathon, no worries they don’t judge you. They just might join you.
~ It’s important to take care of yourself. A little massage (aka belly rubs) really helps to loosen the muscles. Make the time.
~ Someone annoying you? Just tilt your head and smile until it confuses them and they walk away.
~ When all else fails just smile, because it hasn’t broken you. You are stronger than you think, and your dog agrees.
Just remember there is no love stronger than that of a dog (or cat for my cat people).
What lessons have you learned from your dog?
Kelly says
I love this! I love your pictures of Seamus and I love his adoption story. It was meant to be. He picked you. <3 And you're forever blessed.
Kerry says
Yes, it was totally meant to be. Thank you, I am so lucky to have him.
kathy at more coffee, less talky says

Kerry says
Thank you. I agree! 😉
Linda sheridan says
Just lovely. We were saying yesterday it’s harder to watch our pups age than it is to watch humans age. Our furry kids are the best!
Happy Wednesday.
Love. Steph’s. Momma
Kerry says
It is so hard, and I try not to think about it. They are the best, so much love.
Amanda says
Such a good start to the day! 🙂 I love how Seamus ALWAYS smiles! 😀 JC gives “hugs”… he puts his paws on our shoulders – it is so ridiculously adorable.
Kerry says
Seriously it kills me how he smiles. I want a hug from JC.
Biana says
Seamus is seriously too cute for words! xo, Biana
Kerry says
Thank you. He gets me all smiley!
elle sees says

Kerry says
Awww I am glad. He does help me start the day right everyday!
chelsea jacobs says
Looove this. Dogs are seriously the best. Ever.
Kerry says
They really are, so much happiness and joy.
Marie says
I love this!! Seamus is so cute!! I wish I could have a dog as cute as him but I’m just not home enough. It would be unfair to the dog. One day..
Kerry says
Hopefully one day, they are so worth the sacrifice.
Stephanie says
I love Seamus posts 🙂 I totally agree with all of the above! Netflix marathons are Hawkeye’s favorite.
Kerry says
They are the best especially when it starts to get cold and you can just cuddle up with blankets. Best time ever!
Amanda says
Awww! He looks so happy in all of these pictures!
Kerry says
Thanks! He is one happy pup, it makes my heart happy.
Brianne Bracco says
Seamus is the sweetest!! And I agree, Bella could never do wrong in my eyes 😉
Kerry says
Thank you. He is the best! Bella is adorable, and agree no wrong!!
Kelli says
To much sleep is never enough, my dogs can sleep like no one’s business. Oh and from Seven I learned to just go with the flow, she’s not your normal dog.
Kerry says
I wish we could sleep like they do!! Haha! That is a good lesson!
Stacia says
Dogs are so great! I’m lucky that my cat is super social and sweet.
Kerry says
That is awesome. My cat was standoffish but loved to be in my lap.
Nichole says
I love pup quotes! My all-time favorite is, “A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself.”
Kerry says
That is so true and one of my favorites!!
Emily says
How cute is this post! I do love how dogs stare at their owners with those loving eyes!
Kerry says
Right? Makes you feel like a superhero!
Rebecca Jo says
I totally get why they say dog is man’s best friend… I adore my fur babies. We can never take vacations because we cant leave them. I wish I was joking on that.
Kerry says
Totally! If my Dad didn’t babysit I wouldn’t either. I don’t trust just anyone with him.
Kate at Green Fashionista says
This couldn’t be more adorable! Loving all the pupper pics <3
Kerry says
Thanks! He tolerates the amount of pictures I take of him.
Erin of TexErin-in-SydneyLand says
I loved loved loved this. Seamus is such a photogenic little man 🙂
Kerry says
Thanks. He really brings the charm when the camera comes out. 😉
kristen says
awwww i love this so much! i agree with Erin, Seamus is so photogenic.
you know I love my cats to the moon and back.. but ssssh, don’t tell anyone, no-one loves you like a dog! my cats are adorable and affectionate.. when they want to be! most of the time they are happy to do their own thing, but dogs always want to be around you. no love like dog love!
Kerry says
Thank you. The camera does seem to like him. Yes cats are so independent it seems like they could take us or leave us, dogs just want us around all the time.
