When I looked up from reading and saw Jon and Zinnia sitting together, I saw more than just Jon and a cute puppy.
What I saw was timeless.
Even though we’ve only had Zinnia for three weeks, I sensed a connection between her and Jon that felt ancient. Suddenly she was no longer a puppy but the embodiment of the relationship between dogs and humans.
A friend told Jon she thought that “As an older spirit dog, Red perhaps had the power to call a puppy to a task.” That made sense to Jon and he wrote about it on his blog.
Maybe that’s what saw when I looked over at Jon and Zinnia and took this picture.
There certainly seems to be a grounded connection between the two of them. As if they’ve both been doing this a very long time.
Just love this, Maria and I agree.
