These
pages are dedicated to the memory of my special girl, Honey, who flew off to the Rainbow Bridge on August 30, 2003.
I will
love her and miss her for the rest of my life.
***************
It is somewhat
ironic that I'd been planning to post doggie pix for a few months and had finally gotten around to taking photos
of my three girls, having them developed, and then scanning them in preparation for these pages ... and then, while I was
in the process of loading the photos into my site and getting ready to put them online, my special friend, Honey, peacefully
left this world as I held her paw and my ex-husband comforted her. She was the smartest dog I've ever had, and we were
exceptionally close; whatever room of the house I was in, she was in.
She loved
to play ball and go for walks, and she actually did both on the day she passed away. We think her heart just gave out.
Honey had tumors in several places on her body, and we think she had them internally as well, although I hadn't wanted to
prolong her suffering by subjecting her to painful surgery.
Since it
will be impossible to tell what breed my dogs are by looking at the photos, because they're all mixed breeds, here's what
they are:
Honey -
born 02/06/1993, died 08/30/2003 - German shepherd/golden retriever mix.
Missy -
born 06/1993, died 05/13/2005 - Chow and who-knows-what-else mix.
Lady -
born around 1998 (we don't know for sure), adopted by my ex-husband in late 2002, German shepherd/Australian shepherd mix.
And she doesn't have a tail!
(Update - both Missy and Lady have passed
away since this page was originally put online ... Missy in 2005, and Lady in 2006.)
As time
permits, more pages of doggie pix will be added. I have quite a few of Honey and Missy taken over the years, plus some
of my late dalmatian, Pepper.
Hope you
like them! (The pix, that is. The dogs ... well, that's another story! They're like children; they can drive
you crazy at times, but you just love them beyond all reason.)
