I’ve always had a soft spot for dogs and have actually lived with several over the years, it’s just they have always been someone else’s and I never quite thought of myself as being a dog owner. Cat owner, goodness yes! Then, Weiky came along (he’s my partner-in-crime’s little guy) and I fell in love with his quirky, adorable, funny little self. As time went on I began to think that maybe having a dog and being considered a cynophilist would be a really great thing and then a few months ago I started really thinking about it, then I started looking and then *bam* everything seemed to fall into place. I so can’t wait to go get my little girl and I’ll properly introduce her after she get’s settled in.
This was my favorite book when I was a tiny thing – maybe in hindsight I was always a bit of a cynophilist!
Here’s to all the cynophilists and ailurophiles everywhere!

Cute column, but please correct your usage in the following sentence: Here’s to all the cynophilist’s and Ailurophile’s everywhere! The plural does not require an apostrophe. Hope you are having fun with your pup!
Thank you for catching that. It’s hard to believe that my pup has been in my life for almost 3 wonderful years now! Hope you’re having a whimsical day!
