GODWINK WEDNESDAY - BOGART - JUST LIKE ME
Four-year old LANDON had suffered a physical and emotional condition. He had a CLEFT-LIP and pallet. Now, other kids were noticing that he was different. They began making fun of him.
Landon’s mom, KELLY Sayer, watched helplessly as her little boy slipped into DEPRESSION.
One day, Kelly had an INNER NUDGE. Perhaps she could get her son a PUPPY. A companion that WOULDN’T JUDGE on how he looked.
But Kelly had no idea … what a wonderful GODWINK was awaiting Landon at the animal shelter.
They looked at several puppies, but none seemed quite right.
Then, one tiny pup came BOUNDING UP to Landon … expressing the joy that only a dog can bring. Landon’s FACE LIT UP. He lifted up and SNUGGLED the little creature … giggling as the pup covered his face with DOGGIE KISSES.
Kelly COULD NOT BELIEVE what she was seeing. The PUPPY … named BOGART … had a CLEFT LIP just like Landon’s!
Her little boy shouted … “Look mommy … he’s JUST LIKE ME!”
Kelly and Landon brought Bogart home.
And you can only imagine watching Landon’s JOY … as his tiny pup took his first THRILL RIDE on a RHUMBA VACUUM CLEANER!

The REST OF THE STORY?
As we wrote in our new book DOGWINKS … when he grows up Landon WANTS TO BE a vet. And already, he and Bogart are ambassadors for “Operation Smile ” … a charitable organization that provides cleft surgery to children around the world.
Also, we invite you to checkout the Dogwink Audiobook.
Wishes for Winks, SQuire
