You have never regretted your decision. Getting one of those Protection Dogs for yourself has been a blessing. Your pet looks like a mean burly thing but acts like a sweetheart to you and your family when they come for visits. He is especially good with your grandkids and he never bit anyone despite all the hugging, stroking, and tail pulling that he had to endure. Living the life of an old widow alone at home has its perks but it also has its risks. Most people think that old ladies are easy prey and they are right. Your bag has been snatched from you twice before your son convinced you to get a dog for your protection and safety. You did not think twice about that decision despite the added cost of feeding and caring for a dog.
The truth of the matter is that you feel lonely most of the time. Your children visit frequently with your grandchildren but going about your day alone without anyone to talk to when you get home makes the nights longer than they used to be. When you chose one of the Protection Dogs for Sale and brought him home you felt like a mother again with someone to care for and talk to even if the responses you get are barks, grunts, and the occasional wagging tail. When you brought him to the seniors center, he was like a superstar with all the attention he got from your friends. There are now more of you with protection dogs and you set up play dates for the dogs once a week.
