My dog protected me all night.

I live alone and a few nights ago I got a bad case of the "stomach flu". I ended up sleeping on the floor of my bathroom as I had to throw up so much and with little warning. I brought in some blankets and such, and left the door to my bedroom open. I figures my dog would settle down in my bed for the night. Instead he sat next to me while I vomited, giving me tiny kisses in a consoling way. When I was able to lay down for a bit he "patrolled" around my apartment returning to me every short bit to give more kisses or to "stand guard", and when I was finally able to start to sleep he settled down with me on the floor and snuggled me to sleep. He really tried to protect me and let his own comfort go, and it was the most adorable thing he had ever done. It truly showed me how much he cares for me, its on a level that I couldn't even imagine.
