When I was, years ago, in deep despair and suicidal, a counselor suggested that perhaps a pet would be of help. He stated that having to take care of it would require me to focus on the pet’s care and would decrease my genuflecting on the negative themes surrounding my life. He was right. I got Layla, a Great Pyreenes, five years ago, and she essentially, saved my life.

She also, with her 120 lbs of protectiveness, prevented a burglar from entering my car and guest house on my property in Phoenix two years ago.

She has been a irreplaceable friend and companion and she always cheers me up when I am down.

She is truly “man’s best friend”
