Finally, Saturday is upon us, and thank goodness. I’m completely burnt-out on a project that I’m working on at the office, and I’m ready to curl up in a ball on my sofa and watch reruns of, well, anything. But first, I must blog.
Today is Saturday Photo Hunters day, and the theme is shadow. And really, the first thought that came to mind when I read the theme is of my little Jack Russell Terrier, Abby, who passed away suddenly in April. She was most definitely my little shadow.
Here’s Abby when I first met her. And I swear I’m not trying to choke her! Just looks that way…
And here she is meeting our bassett hound, Billy Ray, for the first time. He loved her so much that she could jump and climb all over him. And most importantly—chew on his looooong ears…
Here she is running like a little demon around the coffee table. This behavior continued to occur every evening around 7pm when she would chase Billy Ray…
Here she is a little bit older standing on my writing desk. I swear, she was like a billy goat. She could climb up or on anything!
And here’s one of the last pictures that I took of her. I made her wear her St. Patrick’s Day bandana. C’mon…she was Irish! And she did not like it at all…
It’s funny how heartbreaking it is to lose a pet. But they become such an intricate part of your everyday life, and when they’re gone, they take a big chunk of your heart with them. Abby certainly did that to me.
Awww… Abby was adorable! You are so right about pets taking a big part of your life. They are your babies and when they are gone, a piece of you goes with them… beautiful post for this theme, perfect.
