Golden Retriever stick its tongue out with back light and soft green background

I always remember when my dogs came to our home for the first time. My dogs and I had a really good time together, since the beginning. I had two female dogs that started living with me in my home at different times; Luna, the first one came to my home in 2005, while Edna joined me in 2014.

Luna was a dog that was living on the street that my oldest brother picked up on my birthday. When she entered the apartment she was a little confused, but the confusion was not enough to stop her from finding the food in the kitchen; she went straight to the kitchen and took the bakery items that were on the washing machine, and she ate four buns or so. She had a very strong character but she was always a very good and loyal dog to us.

Edna is a dog from a very good family; she is a very good example of what a Golden Retriever is. When she came home she was around 4 months old; she was a baby, so she was a very tiny ball of golden hair. At that time my mom did not want to have more dogs, but my dad and I really wanted it, so we went to see this little dog, and we just fell in love. The next thing we knew, we were trying to hide Edna under a few coats on the couch to prevent my mom from seeing her. Obviously that did not work and my mom figured it out instantly. As soon as my mom saw Edna she fell in love with her too. Definitely, she is the cutest dog in the world.      

I remember from the bottom of my heart these two occasions. Since the first time that I saw them, each one in its own way, I knew that we would be best friends, and we were. Luna cared and taught Edna when she was growing up; Edna was Luna’s company all the time, and they had for me the most friendly, confident, and close friendship in my life.
