Our hearts are heavy as we say good-bye to a member of our family. Pippin passed away this morning. She was 15 years old. I'll miss you, sweet girl. 'Til we meet again...

Happy Birthday, Swan! Yesterday was Swan's First Birthday! She got an extra biscuit & we all sang happy birthday. Swan is a French Bulldog mix, & I still don't have any good pictures of her, but this one will do. (Ignore the swollen girl bits -- she was in her first -- & hopefully last -- Heat.)

Happy Birthday, Starbuck!!
Today Starbuck turns 12 years old! We adopted him when he was a tiny 8 week old butterball. He has more issues than NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC, and was dubbed by a vet tech as having the face of essential doggyness! We love him so much!!

Pippin is 15 years old today!! We adopted her at 1 1/2 years old, and it took her 5 years for her to let us pick her up without drama. She'd come to us, touch us, then retreat when we tried to pick her up. Now, she's a regular love bug. Happy Birthday, little girl -- may you have many more!

Yesterday my Teddy Bear turned 13 years old. He's the happiest, bestest boy, and my complete shadow. From the moment we adopted him when he was 10 1/2 months old, he was MY dog. And I am so lucky.

The Twins -- Michonne and Sasha -- turn 10 years old today!! They are the most enthusiastic doggos you'll ever meet, and they've never met a stranger. Happy Birthday, girls!

Today my Tennessee twins turn 11 years old! Gypsy is every bit as sassy as ever. Merlin is doing the best he can, with his blindness and low thyroid. He's still happy, engaged, and devoted to his mama (me!)

Today Sugarfoot turns 16 years old!! I adopted her and her late brother Boomer when they were only 10 months old, and she's still going strong. She has a mild heart murmur, but is otherwise sound and happy. She's a total velcro dog, and my dear friend.

Beautiful work. I'm sorry for your loss -- He reminds me of our Willow we lost so long ago.

Today Yuki turns 14 years old! She's one of the happiest little dogs in the pack, very vocal with her growls and yaps, keeping all of us in line. Happy birthday, sweet girl!

The wolf has been my spirit animal since I was a little girl. I worry about the wolves since they were partially removed from the Endangered Species list. They are so precious to me.
