There is something so very special about the love that your dog has for you. Have you ever returned home from a quick trip to the grocery store and been absolutely smothered with kisses from your furry friend?

A loyal dog offers instant forgiveness for being left behind and makes you feel loved. Although your pup may not understand where you have been or why you had to leave, there is no denying the incredible joy your dog has upon your return.

When expressing their delight, younger puppies might wiggle, jump all around, run in circles, and perhaps even have a little accident on the floor, unable to control the elation they feel.

Older dogs might not be able to jump as high or run as fast anymore, but they can definitely still make their joy known at the return of their beloved owner.

Army Pvt. Hannah Foraker sadly had to leave Buddy, her thirteen year old golden retriever, behind when she headed off for basic training. The two pals had never been separated for that length of time before. Foraker tried to Skype with Buddy when she could, but nothing compares to a real hug, right?

At thirteen, Buddy suffers from arthritis and is nearly deaf, so it was not a huge surprise when Foraker returned home and Buddy did not recognize her at first. Foraker told ABC News, "When I came home we let her outside and, at first, she didn’t realize I was home.

Then, she did a double-take and came back to me. That’s when she started crying and whimpering. She was so excited."

This story has touched the many hearts and brought more than a few happy tears to people's eyes. Deanna Nissen said, "Wow that’s a long time for a Golden retriever to live.

That dog was waiting for her to come home. May God bless you both." Vinz Lim responded with, "This dog looks like the type of dog that would sit down next to you and tell your (sic) encouraging and wise words. I want a dog like this."
