We decided to let Lola go yesterday. Her mobility had taken a turn for the worse over the weekend and we decided it was time to let her go. She had a good long happy life and we miss her terribly. The only dog I've ever had from an 8 week old puppy. The house is so very quiet. It's the first time in 19 years that I haven't had a Border Collie knocking around.
Oh, man, the longer they stay, the farther they wiggle into your heart. And two within six months slipping away--that's rough. I think of your dogs out in the mountains with you among the wild and scenic mountains and wildflowers and fresh air and wind. They were lucky, lucky border collies.
ReplyDeleteThanks. She was my special girl.
