A friendship with an animal is truly a beautiful and lifelong experience.
If you've owned a dog or cat for years and years, it's always amazing to look back and cherish how much time you've been able to enjoy together, and how much both of you have changed since the "old days."
Most dogs live to be around 13, while cats average closer to 15 years. Their time with us is fleeting, but no matter how long they are here with us, they'll live on forever in our hearts and memories.
After all, there's nothing quite like sharing the experience of growing up and even "going gray" with a pet.
