beautiful....just beautiful. 

We lost our beautiful Golden 16 years ago - I thought my heart would break.  It took two years before we were ready for a new furry friend.  Now, my spirited, loving, crazy-smart Border Collie has cataracts, achy joints, getting deaf.  Yesterday he stumbled just walking through the grass outside.

I'd have to disagree with God on some things if I ever get my say.....dogs lives are waaaaaaaaaay too short.

100% true.  Hope you still have more quality time left with your fur-baby.   034

Just got back from the vet for the annual and he seems perkier today.  We've put him on dasaquin (sp?) for joints - maybe its kicking in!  A good brushing and some lovin is what I need  :laugh:

My Buddy Maxwell Smart enjoying the Fort Worth snow.  He left us on 1/4/15. 





He was certainly handsome

Thanks for sharing the photos of Maxwell Smart. Cute name by the way. I'm sure after all this time you still miss him terribly.

Thanks.  He died in my arms at 10:45pm at home. Max's passing was very hard to deal with.  With my other buddies .....you always knew it was time,  and the Vet put them down.....

This is ole one-eyed Hank. He got off to a bad start as a pound puppy when he was attacked and bitten by a big dog who punctured his eye. He was adopted for three years then returned to a shelter where I adopted him three years ago. He is a Border Terrier.

This is Rocky Joe. He is a Bichon Frise, now 16 years old, blind and has congestive heart failure. I adopted him fifteen years ago. He is still the alpha male, much to Hank's chagrin.

This is Lucy, my Rat Terrier.  She's my best friend and my back up alarm clock.


Snow White is our rabbit pet that lives outside within the fenced yard.  She's 6 years old.


These are my chickens staying cool by the fish pond.  The 2 large koi in the pond are about 2 ft long.

@Texas Yellow Rose, Lucy is adorable!

I'm looking for another small dog to take Max's place. Big shoes to fill for such a little guy.  I think I'm going to go with a Sheltie.  Smallish and smart.  My big dog needs someone to keep him company.  He just hasn't been himself since Max died.

The big dog is 1/2 Pyr and 1/2 Border Collie.  He's never sure if he's supposed to herd or guard.

@Sanguine  LOL ... A Great Pyrenees? I had one back in the 80's.  He was over 6' tall standing on his hind legs.

The Border Collie part keeps him a bit smaller - he's only 106 lbs. Little fella.

Your Franklin is a handsome fellow and looks to be just as much of a couch lounger as my little ones. :laugh:
