"1:03 AM. Our camera caught Buddy sleeping with something that isn't even his... It's one of our son's old t-shirts, forgotten in the laundry pile weeks ago. We found Buddy curled around it on the couch, paw draped over it like he was protecting it. He sleeps with it almost every night now. He can't call his best friend. He can't check a phone to see when he's coming home. All Buddy has is a piece of fabric that still smells like him β and somehow, that's enough to bring him comfort. We didn't teach him to do this. He just... started. The night after our son left, actually. If your dog has ever held onto something that reminds them of someone they miss, you know this kind of love doesn't need words. Drop a β€οΈ for Buddy tonight.
