There're the best. Doggie Rom-coms.They've become my go-to- movies whenever sadness overcomes me. With my Mr. Wiggles gone this past September 3rd, I am heartbroken. Keeping busy was not a problem. There was much to do. Special Education would top my list, bringing my yeast dough program to another audience. But I needed an outlet to soothe and make me smile and laugh.
Doggie rom-coms are a panacea for my broken heart. We have Happy Howlidays and Walking the Dog adorning my heart,raising my happiness quotient a bit higher. In the first movie, a single woman, while on her way home, in the rain, one evening, rescues a large dog being held hostage within the confines of a wooden fence. The precious creature follows her home and begins to wreak havoc on her heart and home.while falling in love with another of his species at the animal shelter they visit. Nothing goes as planned. This story of life, love and humour does not disappoint. I've watched it 5 times.
In Walking the Dog we have another winner, a tale of two lawyers, both fostering dogs, who begin the plot line on opposite sides in a courtroom, defending their positions regarding the bike lanes in a small town. Another gem, in my opinion, having watched this gem several times. Many television actors are superb in the acting s they perform. A-listers are not required here.
Movies of animals, love and humour have my attention each and every time. Even the latest Jurassic Park movie has me crying as the dinosaurs are depicted as a species needing protection from humans. No kidding.
Rom-coms, the latest in television seduction, help in making my llfe a little more stress free. When sadness envelopes, a Hallmark doggie rom-com comes to my rescue. There is Love and Sunshine. It is the story of a woman who fosters a retriever for a soldier is another happy movie to watch and smile about. The level of interest is over the top as both the lead characters focus on 'their' puppy and their relationship with each other. Another winner.
T.V. movies, of the animal genre, are a mainstay in my entertainment diet and my heart. They help bridge the loss of my sweet, kind, lovable Wiggler who suddenly passed away. I see and feel him everywhere I look. Everywhere. He was larger than life, my life. He was family who loved company with all who visited. When little “Ella” comes to visit, it's no longer a playdate for momsey. It's now a sleepover, one that excites me beyond anything else, except, perhaps, my grandchildren.
