Ooh this is so good Sue, thank you! 💖 And yes, mildly uncomfortable to listen to 😅. All my relationships have been codependent and my dogs are no different. I've always lived my life for others, losing myself along the way. I'm so thankful to now be aware of this and to know that there is another way to be. My dogs are such good mirrors and as we heal and grow together I notice the difference in them, maybe more than in myself. I can now make different choices in the moment and come from a place of love rather than fear, and I am noticing them also making their own decisions more and choosing to do things in a different way. I love seeing their confidence shine through and no longer worry that they don't always need me to be there. I recognise I have a long way to go with all the topics you mentioned, but also how far I've already travelled towards love. I'm in a place now where I don't worry or feel guilty or stress about how we are doing - I see that we are growing and evolving naturally and that's good enough for me 😊

Beautiful Tracy, thank you for your reflections.
Indeed it is a process of stretching, growing and evolving, at a pace that feels right for each of us individually. ⭐️💛💫
Sending you and your pups some love.
