How do I know?  Because of a tiny 2+ pound Golden Retriever that I rescued when he was just a few weeks old.  Not expected to survive he miraculously beat the odds, and during our six years together has taken up permanent residence in my heart.   He is MY furry angel, Cooper Monday.

Take a moment from your holiday preparations to watch this amazing video called Christmas Story--A Journey of the Angels.  It is a beautiful testament to those furry angels who give us so much and ask for so little in return.  Deeply touching, it reminds us all that Christmas is love in action.  

Wishing you and your "angels" a blessed holiday season.
