I hope these pictures will proxy as a reminder to keep Dominic in your prayers. More specifically, please pray that God will continue to intercede and protect him each and every time he "bolts." It's becoming an every day occurrence, and I can't begin to explain how hard our hearts pound and how fast our stomachs crawl into our throats every time he runs out into the road. Today in church I was playing piano, and I just happened to look up and see him running out of the pew. I figured he was just running back to the nursery as he usually does, but when I saw him go past the nursery and head for the stairway, I knew someone better get to chasing him...fast. Thankfully, Dad was in the nursery with Gus and Maya and saw Dom run past the window. Dad rushed out and caught him before he made it out the back door and into the street. And that was just the first instance. He did it again about 10 minutes later.
To tell Dom that a car will hurt him or he will have to go the hospital only brings an ornery grin with lots of laughter. The comprehension just isn't there. So please, please, please throw any extra prayer time his way! ;)
I gave Steph some papers today from the Canine Assistance Rehabilitation and Education Services, so hopefully a therapeutic service dog will be in the works soon. So get ready for some fundraisers, okay?! The service dog is approximately $2,500, but that is SO much cheaper than a hospital bill! :)
Lots of love,
Sarah
