S A D D I

SADDI, was always full of love (except for other doggies).  There was only one time when she reacted negatively towards a human.  A guy who had come into our yard, often, and used it as a bathroom.  As he walked past us, one day, SADDI let out a soft growl.  That was the only time SADDI did that.  Otherwise she was always welcoming to human attention.  i remember one beautiful morning we were seated at the local college and a group of Japanese students walked by, SADDI was smiling, sitting so proudly, leaned up against me.  The students stopped and asked if they could take SADDI's picture.  i moved over and allowed SADDI to have the spotlight.  She loved it.  That big beautiful smile, her curly tail wagging.  The students thanked us and went on with their day.  i tried to give SADDI a kiss, because i was so proud of her.  But she didn't like public kisses, at home it was fine.  But i gave her one anyway.   And we continued to sit there, people walking by smiling at this beautiful doggie smiling at them.
