Welcome Waggin’
Howllo Fellow Hound and Welcome Waggin’ Lovers!
This is a blog about our Emma but first I must explain. Many of my dear readers know that Grandpa is not doing so well. Last night for the second time in 3 days I have had to drive him to the ER in early morning hours. His medications are causing side effects. He is on the mend.
Now back to Emma. I got home this morning about about 5:00am after being at the ER for about 4 hours. I was so tired. I crawled back into bed and Emma was so excited it threw me into a laughing fit. I must admit, I needed a laughing fit!
She jumped on me, threw her arms around my neck and started nibbling my chin. Ever since she was a pup she was a chin nibbler! I have to tell you it was the cutest thing ever.
I was laughing so loud that I thought I would wake my Dad who cannot hear by the way!
I kept calling her my sweet Welcome Waggin’. Her tail was going so fast it was throwing her body almost off the bed.
Imagine this right in your face – sweet!
When she settled down her head was on my pillow and I was about a hair’s breath away from her mouth. I tucked her a bit under my head because she does not have the best breath.
It made me think about how special a Welcome is. A heart felt Welcome. A true Welcome.
It’s the little moments like this that touch the soul. I might have been cranky and tired from all of the ER trips, but I had this to come home to. A real, out loud, laughing moment. From my Emma.
Plus Grandpa is on the mend.
Hopefully no more ER stories later……Love Cat, Chaps and Emma

There is nothing like a Basset welcome home, they are happy from the tip of their nose to the tip of their tail. Real unconditional love. Every time you come home it’s a celebration. I love it so. Hugs Ken
i have to tell you…the mayor is a special hound but emma is my favorite…and i think more so since she is blind. to me her face is so much more expressive now. sometimes God lets us see the wisdom he has in different ways…and you are so fortunate as he has blessed you by having emma shine by you. enjoy it.
I have to agree with Lois -I love Emma stories.
I think all our hounds make us remember what’s really important in life.
Glad to hear your dad’s on the mend.

This is what unconditional love is.
Some Indian tribes believed that blindness was a gift because it allowed people to see with their heart and soul, and they could not be deceived by their eyes.
Wow………
