Many of you have heard my story already....but here it is again.
Three years ago (coming this March), but 19 year old daughter, Michelle, died suddenly. I was barely coming to grips with that loss when Timber, my 12 year old Sheltie, also suddenly died from a lung tumour which we did not know about. This was less than 2 months later.
My sister told me at the time, that Michelle must have called Timber up to her to keep her company until the rest of us would join her in the everlasting.
Of course, the emptiness I felt was unbearable. It took me about 3 days to decide I wanted another dog, and about another 3 days to decide to another Sheltie. Within the month, Bacca came home.
As much as Timber was a wonderful dog, I think Bacca is my true forever pup! He is gutsy and brave, and sometimes just a little silly. He's as a solid as a rock, and has kept me from losing it so many times.
And then there's Indy.....(sigh!)
