Banjo Is My Best Buddy, He's My Dog.

B anjo's a standard poodle. He's  2 years old.  He has  very blueblood with papers and all. I love poodles because I had them as child.  He's like a family member to me.  My husband and I have a "non-traditional living arrangement".  So I spend much more time with my pooch than him.  Banjo is uncannily bright. He is always very up-beat. Let's not talk about unconditional love.  I can't help but appreciate this canine's utter devotion to me.  My son has a form of "high functioning autism "  and Banjo brings out the best in him too. He has this sense of just how to be with each of us.  Of course, he has limitless energy so he needs a lot of our attention. but he's worth it. My husband chides me on how much money I spend on him (he needs grooming and he has Addison's disease which requires medicine and bloodwork-he can live a normal life) To me the energy I expend on Banjo is given back many fold. I won't even say what I get for the energy expended on said spouse. Just thought I liked to acknowledge my appreciation for the canine in my life.
