Sorry to hear you lost PITA. Hard to deal with losing a deeply loved friend. Always loved the posts you put up about her.
I decided to have Pita cremated and get her ashes back, she loved a pontoon ride I will give her one last ride. We still have 2 little yappers to keep us company and of course Larry the grand dog, The ice is on the bay and Larry is on constant lookout for the otter he has to let the otter know that he knows and his beller the whole lake knows too.
It has been a few days and to be honest I feel worse, it is so quiet in the house. No more coughing fits, no more anxiety barks the poor damn dog was suffering.
a couple years ago, my best buddy, Missy the black lab, passed away after 15 wonderful years, i swore, no more dogs , also i was in later 60,s ,, this lasted 6 months, I was just so lonely !! I broke down, but looked for a small dog, as i can not go as fast or far as i used to, Found a min pin at a rescue shelter, She had a tough life, police took her away, from that ahole, after 2 years she is the best little buddy !! I still miss Missy, I think of her often, she has a headstone in backyard, BUT I am no longer lonely, and smaller dog was a good choice at this time
Damn little dogs wear you down and win you over. Still have Pita's daughter Gertie she thinks I am the most awesome person ever.
Larry the grand dog is staying with us for a week or so. He is fixated looking out the window waiting for the otter to pop out of the hole in the ice. I have to keep an eye on him so he does not run out on the ice. He bellers every time he sees the otter pop up. Does not work to close the curtains he sticks his head thru.
Too funny , how to tell your two big dogs are sick of the cold weather and bored silly A.J. and Scout go into the sitting room, they both flop down on their sides or backs face to face. They then proceed to growling and snarling as they chew on each others faces and heads. The whole time wagging their tails and slapping each other with their front legs. This goes on for nearly an hour one or two times a day. You'd think they were killing each other to the point I need to check on them once in a while. Mind you we have E collars so they are allowed to run several times a day and I just beep them back if they're not banging on the storm to get back to warmth.
