I'm so sorry to hear this. Makes me think of our beloved Goldie - sweet shepherd mix who was with us about 14 years. Nobody knew how old she was when we fell in love with her at the local shelter and made her OURS.

Lola, wherever you are, it's my pleasure to introduce you to Goldie! And several cats - Barney, dB, Mousetrap, Dub, and Ernie. They're all hanging out at the Rainbow Bridge where you'll find you have many new friends. (Getting teary-eyed as I write this. DAMN I miss Goldie...)

Hope if there's a hereafter that I can eventually visit the Rainbow Bridge and love 'em all up, all over again. Your Lola will undoubtedly be settling in comfortably.





I HATE saying goodbye to fur babies...
