Red and Rover by Brian Basset for September 18, 2019

Good old mama dog

Mother is best! With the exception of Red, – but that one is no dog!!

I just love Rover. There isn’t a thing wrong with him.

Awwwww – GOOD answer…

Good doggie..

I like Rover and this comic. Red reminds me of my grandson Eric. He had red hair as a boy too.

This just touched my heart.

There you go, Rover, making my eyes water again…

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!

Good choice.

There you go pulling on the old heart strings…

Awwwww! One never forgets their mother…..

And if I could spend the day – even five minutes, even a moment – with anyone ….. I too would choose my Mom.

Great answer

That is just like Rover!

I prefer to think that my dog has forgotten all about her mother and that I’m the only mom she wants to see.

Dang it, Basset! You’re supposed to make us laugh, not tear up!

I can recall one of your stories was about your mother, Rover…Red said how much you were like her – everything wonderful – LOVE TO YOU BOYS, ALWAYS

Love this. Would like to live next door to them.

AWE! So sweet! I’d pick my mom, too. But for much longer than just one day. She passed in 2001.

Are you sure? I heard she was a b***h.

Sweet.

Ahhhh and here come my tears…..

AWWW!

Flashback…I don’t know why, just thought of my mother, we lost her to cancer 32 years ago.

My dog Shilo got reunited with his mother on his 1st birthday. We had a birthday party for him and his 3 brothers at a beach with both his parents, organised by the rescue centre we got he and his brothers from. Shilo’s mother Lucy was abandoned at the side of a road where she had Shilo and her 3 other puppies but all were,found, rescued and adopted into to good homes. At the reunion Shilo remembered his mother and his brothers with touching affection. And Lucy went into full on Mother mode fussing over all of them and running around after them. It was so lovely to see. Dogs always remember their mother. But that doesn’t mean they won’t love their human mother any less. Shilo is a great example of that.

aw

I feel the same way. I miss my mom every day!

If I could spend a day with any other person it would be my mom. I could use one of her hugs again

These two have reduced me to a puddle three days in a row. They’re so adorable that I wish I was rolling around on the grass with them!!!

Yep. Got me.
