The relationship between human beings and dogs is a special one, to say the least. Scientific research shows that man’s domestication of dogs first took place some 30,000 years ago , and since that time, our playful pups have become our literal and proverbial best friends.
Our dogs would do anything for us. In fact, some dogs are so loving and considerate that they take public transportation just to surprise their owners at work. Now, that might sound a little far-fetched. That is until you read about Gladys Shigla and her adoring dog, Denver.

Right from the get-go, Denver loved showing off his adventurous side and seemed to enjoy nothing more than exploring his newfound home and the surrounding neighborhood. But recently, Denver became tired of chasing his tail around his backyard and began expanding his horizons.
