The last few weeks have been rough for our extended family. We lost Hobbs, the little guy we took in as a terminal foster, then we lost Brat, our music loving black cat. This week we heard from Barbie's Mom. Barbie and Missy were our first Schipperke fosters, and we loved them more than we should. They were happy little girls and they would talk to us and cuddle with us. They moved to Kansas two years ago and have been living a great life at home and on the road, transporting horses around the country with their Mom.
Last week Barbie went off her food and her vet discovered that she had cancer. Her Mom took her to the Vet School at Mizzou to see if anything could be done, but Barbie passed away the very next day. Life is so fragile and short. Barbie was a loving little dog, and we all miss her. She loved to watch the squirrels when she lived with us, and you can see how she would follow one through the tree tops.
Rest In Peace, little girl; we will never forget you!
We have several old pets, and I sure do get tired of digging graves. We seem to always find room for another, though! The Schips are a joy and we don't want to be without them. I feel really bad for the lady who adopted Barbie and Missy. They are great company for her at home and on the road hauling horses.
Sorry to hear that.
