wkpickett, to Dogs

We lost our GSD, Kaiser, to cancer on 11/30/2023. He was 13 years old. Our last large dog. It feels weird, not having a big fur baby around, but we're getting older & I'm unable to lift or hold onto a large breed anymore. A lifetime of Golden Retrievers and German Shepherds done.
So, if you see an older woman who coos and looks longingly at the big dog you're walking...that might be me. Or someone else like me. We'll be thinking "lucky you." ❤️

Yep. I'm still adapting to the fact that I'll never have a big dog again. We have two small ones now that are delightful. Before they arrived, I had a Havanese (Pepper) come into my life who completely owned my heart. He was the one to convince me that small dogs were fun, too. He used to ride in a basket on the front of my bike and he LOVED it. He passed in Oct '22.
Smaller ones are easier/safer for my aging body to care for. I'm going to miss the big ones, though.

🤦🏻‍♀️WELP! 1/...

Attorney General Ken acquitted in trial

Paxton was impeached for allegedly taking bribes, but ultimately members of his party chose not to vote for his conviction and removal from office.

What changed between May and now that those 70% couldn't vote the same way to finish the job of holding him accountable?

@GottaLaff @llywrch
Ah, thank you. I missed that.

Pepper looking quite curious and adorable (2021).

Poppies for taken in the Antelope Valley Poppy Preserve, spring of 2019. I love that there were a few yellow ones among a sea of orange.

Missed opportunity for Disney: I have not seen even one thing for dogs in any gift shop. I will keep looking and report back.

wkpickett,

@Saltssaltgirl Right? We bought our pup his own Tigger plushie, but I would've loved a proper dog toy for him. (No button eyes or other dangerous bits.)
