A heart dog is a dog who is more than a pet to you. They’re your best friend, and who you go to for comfort and companionship. They hold a special place in your heart.
As a Southern lady, I can tell you there are several meanings to this Southern phrase.
1. If something terrible happens to you, I say it as a way to say "That really sucks! I feel sorry for you." I'll look at you with genuine sympathy.
2. If I look at you with a sardonic smile, I'm trying to call you an idiot without sounding rude.
3. If I look annoyed or mad, that means you've really crossed the line and you're not in good stead with me. It's my way of saying "Go fuck yourself!!!" when I'm in a situation where I can't just say that.
1. "Your mama has cancer? Oh, bless your heart. I'll be praying for you."
2. "I don't know what that guy was thinking when he said that was a good idea, bless his heart."
3. This man was rude and he needed to be put in his place, so I looked him in the eyes and said "Well, bless your heart!".
the worst insult any southerner could dish out. to "bless someone's heart" is to pity someone for their sheer ignorance, stupidity, and gosh darn lack of intelligence. if the person who's heart you are blessing does not realize they are being insulted, then that proves their stupidity.

The feeling when you lose the person you though would be in your life forever. When it feels like there’s not point to life without them in it. When you see them when you go for the ‘talk’ and they’re hug shows the final goodbye and you still look at them with the most loving, compassionate eyes, yet all you see is blank and you realise you no longer recognise the love they reciprocate. And in that moment is when your heart truly breaks.
“Why can’t you look at me?”
“Because i’ve fallen out of love with you”.
