My Watch Dog

I've got a watch dog. He lays beside my bed, just inside my bedroom, looking out the door way and down the hall. From this perspective, he can see the entrance to each of my daughter's bedrooms, and the staircase leading to our rooms.

He comes to bed when the last family member does, and stays on guard until everyone stops stirring. He is always the last to go to sleep. If someone gets up during the night, so does he.

He makes sure our family stays safe at night. As he sees it, this is his job.

I love this dog.
