To lighten a heavy heart...


Yesterday was a hard day here at our house...our Shelby dog has been going downhill for a while now. She had become totally deaf, had cataracts, and had a hard time getting up and down. Not to mention the times she just fell...so I made the final decision. It had been weighing on me for so long...
Anyway, I didn't want this post to be all poor me, so thought I would show you a couple videos of Bright Eyes...I hope they work cause they are acting kind of strange. Be sure and pay close attention to her facial expressions in the second one!

    Oh Rose, I am so so very sorry about your doggie. I know how hard it must be for you. When I lost my Duchess, I think I cried for weeks.... It's hard; almost like losing a child. My sincere condolences!!!!

    Cute video of Lorelei... Oh that Cheereos one... Did she somehow get ahold of that big box and pour it all out????? Yipes!!!!!!

    Have a good weekend --despite your loss.
    Hugs,
    Betsy

    It's always so very difficult losing a beloved pet. Glad you had a distraction.
