If you asked me what it is I love the most about City Dog Buck, I'd begin by saying that what it is I love the most about Buck - then pause slightly, lean forward and smile to emphasize my answer before finishing it with two words - is everything.

My last walk on a sunny Tuesday afternoon - yesterday, as I gave my time to help the dogs at Cleveland's kennel - was with you, my friend. Turns out that was our last walk, for a family adopted you some time after I'd left for the day. A nice-looking family that I'm certain has no idea how much love and joy they'll receive in return for opening their hearts to you. I didn't do too badly taking care of you, did I? Let me tell you, seeing you every day was my pleasure and I'm grateful for the chance I had to do just that. You'll never know how much I'm going to miss you, but that's the best part of all of this, isn't it? My love for you is going to be nothing compared to the love your new family will have for you, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

You know I can't smile without you.

How can you not see yourself in these pictures?

Buck's Easter Weekend - starting with our time together Friday morning, a run and a Spring photoshoot Saturday all topped off by some time with a fellow volunteer who gave her time on Easter Sunday to Buck and others at the kennel.

I've been worried the last week and a half or so, worried as I thought about the little guy in the video below. Poor guy's clearly not feral and most likely was dumped near the kennel. I've called him Cat #3 and fed him any chance I have seen him; he's been trusting enough not to run from me and welcomed any attention. Last time I saw him I made my mind up that if I could get him home that I would - and as luck would have it, there he was yesterday afternoon right off the bat as I arrived and walked up to meet me with the Big Boy & the little one. How could I think of anything else but helping this guy? I tried to get him into a cat carrier to no avail. I sat on the hill as he let me rub under his chin. I went in to walk dogs and all I could think of was that I hoped he'd still be close by when I went to leave. Thankfully, he was. He's been resting on top of a pet blanket - two-sided, thicker than most - that is sitting on the top of a crate full of compact discs in the basement. He'll rest up, eat properly - and when he's comfortable enough, I'll clean him up and take him to my vet. Even when it comes to my friend City Dog Buck, as well as he handles his time at the kennel - I worry a little about him, every day. A dog wasn't meant to live in such a small place - sitting inside of it the majority of the day, robbed of life's little pleasures. I'm never going to ask anyone to take pity on one as wonderful as Buck is - no, in time I know in my heart that someone will discover Buck and open their home and heart to him. I just wanted to share with you my thoughts, my distraction. Oh, I may not have spent time with Buck yesterday - I only walked two dogs before I went back out in the hopes I'd get that little guy home - but his champion Kathryn did and I'm certain that he had a wonderful time. Besides, I will see him in just a few hours myself.

If you can keep a secret I'll tell you about my girlfriend at the kennel - City Dog Rhiannon, sweet as can be with the biggest, beautiful eyes. She can shake with both her front paws. Ambidextrous. Below I've captured a bit of yesterday afternoon in the play yard - Buck and I in one, Rhiannon and her special friend Maggie in the adjacent yard. You'll see how special both of these dogs are, how well they get along - and these two can get along with anyone and everyone. In the final two pictures before the video, you'll see two that capture what I love most about each - for Rhiannon, her personality and for Buck, how much love my friend has within his gentle soul.

Always been one of my favorite albums!

The video for the day 🤣🤣🤣🤣, if only for showing how lucky I am to have such a friend in Buck. Watch how goofy he is while he plays but how quickly he responds to my voice - dropping his toy and coming to me. I could never say it enough - he's an amazing boy and the most beautiful friend.

The first I took with Buck yesterday afternoon - the photo of the day 🥰🥰🥰

There's a final piece to this jigsaw puzzle. Buck has been showered with love from all who have come across his path at City Dogs - from the staff at Cleveland's kennel to all of the volunteers I stand beside. I have mentioned the play yard he loves so much and while I haven't any footage from it yet, Buck loves running around with other dogs in the kennel's Play Group. He's walked about the property every day and last week he got out on a run - just yesterday, in all that beautiful sunshine, Buck went on a hike through the MetroParks, both activities thanks to programs set up by my fellow volunteers. In the photos below you'll see my friend and his hike companion, his champion Kathryn. This wonderful jigsaw puzzle I mentioned? It's simply all the aspects of the love Buck has been blessed with, as well as the love that Buck has given in return to all who have spent time with him. The only piece that's missing is you - that final piece that completes his journey from the kennel to his forever home. To his family.

My buddy had quite the day yesterday - from sending Shamu to the graveyard in the afternoon to an evening run with our Volunteer Run Group. He's blessed to get all this attention. In the post below you'll see a video I shot two years back, of the graveyard that most of my Teddy's toys wind up in, that's pretty normal in the scheme of things - these toys just don't last, and when they start to go they go 🤣🤣. Buck in a photo taken during a break on his run & a video from the play yard. Have a beautiful weekend.

Seeing such a happy boy makes any day better.
