The Forest Prince sits upon his Winter Throne
As the seasons change, the days get colder and the nights get longer, we look to our furry friends to give us a reason to venture outside. As my boots crunch through the crisp leaves that litter the floor, I watch as my boy sprints through the woodland without a care in the world. As I rub my hands together for warmth and pull my scarf up to combat the numb tip of my nose, my dog climbs on every fallen log and explores every hole he can find.
The most joyous thing about having an animal companion is that they don't suffer from the same emotional episodes as we do. In fact, they do their very best to combat it with us, through motivation and unfiltered love. Seasonal depression rarely has a chance to take hold when you see the boundless energy of a dog tearing through a wintry woodland and returning with a grin that suggests that all of lifes problems could be solved with a quick run and a sniff.
Thank you to all the dogs that help people who find these darker months hard. We truly don't deserve you, but are infinitely grateful for your presence in our lives.
