A Christmas Eve Memoriam

Dexter
I think that I knew that it would be a last good bye.

Last weekend, I put my head against Dexter's old black brow for a last time not knowing, but guessing, it would be a last time to feel such silky softness. 

From fluffy, busy puppy 14 years ago, to a handsome, grand old man, Dexter still had a playful spirit. While his heart was willing, his body suggested he pushed his limits!

A gentle and kind dog, he tolerated and welcomed new pups, and most other dogs - as long as they behaved.

Dexter, you will be missed by this ‘grandma’

“The dog is a gentleman; I hope to go to his heaven not man’s.”
