Pippa

Our lovely dog Pippa passed away yesterday.

She had been uncomfortable for a week or so

and our trips to the vet this week,

led us to decide what was best for her. Not us.

She gave us so much. She was so loving and amenable to the end.

She is now with Barney her best friend, in a better place.

Together. Forever.

Pippa posts here and here and here

Beloveds

Stirred into action to find some photos of our dogs for a friend 

and then Moannie posting her pooch pic

I have this beauty to share

Pippa is our black labrador now approx 14yrs

Barney a Jack russell/terrier was her best friend

he died 3 years ago at the great age of 20yrs

they slept like this day and night

Pippa deferred always to Barney

after he died she started to whine at night

to sleep by one of our beds

no wanting to be alone

during the day she would keep watch

 by the window until our return

or perhaps looking for Barney

my daughter took this picture one day 

when she was home alone sick

Pippa obviously hadn't realised anyone was still home

LIFE'S A BEACH! - PHOTO STORY FRIDAY

A recent Sunday morning walk along the miles of Solway Firth coast line en famille and Pippa of course!

By the time l had turned on my camera, father and children were streets or should l say sands ahead of me.....wait for me... no chance..

I was pleasantly surprised at the depth of the images, as it was an overcast, dull and breezy morning.
