Return to Blogger

I was looking for a photo to show a friend, and I realized I can still log into this blog! 

So I will update.

For a while, it seemed that every time I sat down to write in my journal or do a craft, it was time to do something else...

Dad is 91 years old now. ( I don't take a lot of pictures of him, but here he is with the dogs.)

He has been pretty stable this year, but he had pneumonia 2 years ago. He still lives at home, but he has emphysema and needs oxygen 24 hours a day.

My orange dog Sam developed a heart condition and died at age 13, two years ago exactly, on Memorial Day 2023. He was so feisty and healthy I had expected him to live many more years.

I got another Shepherd as a companion to the younger dog Blitz. The new puppy is a Dutch Shepherd mixed with a Belgian Malinois. These are the kind of dogs used by military and police.

I gave him the name Cooper because I thought he was silly and strong, and he is.

Cooper just turned 2 years old.

 

I am so grateful to have the most clever and handsome dogs in the world.

Training them, especially when they were little, took a lot of time. 

Luckily now they are mostly mature, and I can do other things like my crafts again.

That reminds me, it is time for a walk.
