Deets

Here I sit looking at a somewhat blank screen trying to compose thoughts about Bandit--my oldest dog. He is lying here on my lap & is wrapped up in my favorite blanket (&, I beleive he is farting quietly & leaving the scent of his most recent meal all over my favorite blanket!). I remember the day he became a member of our family so well--it's like it happened yesterday!! I'm sure Jill also remembers it


well! I'm starting to feel quite protective of Bandit. He has always been perfectly able to take care of himself within the pack (all 7 lbs of him!). I think he still can pretty well intimidate any one of the other 3 dogs in our pack! But, he will soon (in June) be 17 years old!! Do you have any idea how old that is in dog years?! This little dog has given us so many laughs through the years. His spirit--his ability to make all of us be his servants--taking food away from all of the other dogs in the pack just by raising his lips in a snarl! Good grief!! That was really something to watch!! Deets at 7 lbs & Clover at 90 lbs! Guess who caved on that one!
