I'm drying my eyes right now as I can so vividly imagine this event so well brought to life! Thank God for Sadie's Christmas Angel!

Sadie's angel happens to be a friend of mine. He also happens to be any animals best friend...
Thank you so much for your comment and I'm sorry for the tears.

No worries for the tears, a good cleansing is always great! And, what a FINE friend you have there!

Heartwarming, wonderful Christmas tale, Kathy. It had me almost blubbering. Beautifully written, too.

P.S. We've had 3 big red dogs over the years--2 Irish Setters and 1 dark golden-red Golden Retriever. I can see their loving eyes each time I think of them.

Thank you, Nancy. It had the angel in this story blubbering - he's a real softie. I must admit, it took me several days to get a grip so I could write it...
I nearly cried at your remark of still being able to see the eyes of the dogs you had in the past. Oh, they do steal our hearts!

Kathy, the way you write about animals, especially dogs, can wring tears from statues. Great story about a great man! Barbara

I remember reading this story once before somewhere else. I loved it then and I love it now. The man who did this is my kind of guy. A great story.

Thank you very much, Fred. I think you probably read it on Petwarmers last year - it was the last story they ran before Christmas.

There are too many Sadies in this world. Fortunately there are a lot of kind hearted strangers also. We all have our angels. Great story. I was right there with you. Wanda
