I had a next door neighbor who kept black Shepherds and named them all Dukie. WTH? I know just what you mean about seeing a Bichon that looked like your dog byt wasn't. I made a Beeline to see a BC that was at the ARL last month that looked a lot like Dina, and when I got here, I cried, but you know what, the dog was nothing like her. Nope.gooddogzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09494095021191112745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-946887574298179194.post-86511577868875690872010-08-20T11:40:36.255-07:002010-08-20T11:40:36.255-07:00Well, this tribute brought me to tears.

I loved the pictures, especially the last one, but what I loved most was hearing Charlee's story and the progress you have made over time. I may be wrong, but sometimes I think the dogs who touch us most end up teaching US something. Charlee is an amazing and beautiful dog.

One nice thing about Ch...Beautiful photographs too! One nice thing about Charlee is that she is really distinctive. It would be hard to confuse her for someone else. The other day I saw a girl walking a bichon who looked a lot like, scratch that, EXACTLY like Dandylion. I remarked and explained and asked to pet the dog, who acted NOTHING like Dandylion and I burst into big embarrassing snotty loud tears! Love and loss go together in so many ways. Can't have one without the other. We get beat up by it, but in good ways. I guess we're just supposed to go for it. <br />ps I dug a hole for Lassie two or three years before she died. We kept expecting, "this will be her last winter," and so we were prepared, but she'd rally and get better, then have some sort of episode, and then rally. She died when she was 17 years old! But she'd been threatening to die for years!!! It's great that you are enjoying special times with Charlee. We can only live and love in the present.Jenny Ruth Yasihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04654145962763731470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-946887574298179194.post-32394844505911390572010-08-19T01:43:49.894-07:002010-08-19T01:43:49.894-07:00What a sweet tribute.

It's our pets who get us through whatever life throws at us, and it sounds like you got extra special dogs to get you through some especially hard times. Give her a big hug and a walk on the beach from me!KathyFhttp://whatdoiknow.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.com
