A Summer Visit

When Missy hasn't been busy hosting Reno and offering cold doggie drinks on the front porch...

She has been a playmate to maybe one of the cutest little girls I have ever seen in my life.  (Shh..don't tell Hope I said that)!

She has been giving kisses...

And playing trains...

And fetching balls... 
 

and being a snuggle pillow for this little girl. She also assigned herself the role of babysitter when this family came to visit.  The two youngest children could not go outside without Missy being by their side.  She had to make sure that they were safe at all times.


 It has been a full summer for Missy.  She was glad that yesterday was the first day of school.  She finally had time to catch up on her sleep!

grace and peace,

P.S.  If you have young children, babies, older children, or teenagers, an English Mastiff could be a perfect fit for your family.  I have never seen a dog be any more gentle than the English Mastiff.  She tolerates the explorations of children and she has a heart full of love for kids of all ages.  She is the perfect childhood companion for my kids.  Seth would like her to be a little more energetic, but she is always available for a good old fashion hug.
