Senior Love

...its so interesting how my last entry was celebrating Tildens 3rd year of life... and today, I can't wait until the silly boy is 10!! or 12 even!!

I had the pleasure of meeting a new client this morning with a 15yr old aussie/beagle and a 10yr old greyhound. The 15yr old (Zowie) immediately took me back to my B-boy! she was so happy and sweet and lively - you'd never guess she were 15! i only met her today, but i can definitely imagine what her puppy face was like so many years ago. Its amazing how they return to their youth. Its hard to think that B is no longer with me... over half of my life I spent with him... and the most special time was my last year with him. He became such an easy dog who just wanted to be loved. Seniors don't ask for much - but they GIVE so much in return! I was talking to Tina on my way home today... I told her that my next dog is going to be a senior. I don't want to think about Gia leaving me... but depending on how soon it is, I'll either match Tildens age with the newly adopted dog, or just go right ahead and shoot for 10. They're always the last to get adopted... its the least I can do really!
