A wonderful post from Sue Vincent that will have all of us who have loved dogs reaching for our tissues.. Ani is getting older and whilst there will be many years ahead of her, it is a time to reflect on the preciousness of each moment we have with our fur family.
Here is a snippet..and do head over and read the complete post…
It was quiet, too quiet. For the first time in almost eight years, there was no bouncing mass of fur when I came home from work. No grinning muzzle, no tail wagging so hard that it wagged the dog too. For a split second, cold fear had me by the throat… then I heard her snores and breathed again.
Curled up on the sofa, her head on a cushion, the small dog was smiling in her sleep. So deep was her slumber that I watched her for several minutes before she awoke… alerted, not by my presence, but by the scent of chicken emanating from my handbag. You could see the twitch of her nose carrying the prospect of treats to her brain as she struggled to focus drowsy eyes.

Ani and I thank you for sharing, Sally xxx
