Maddie 1985-1998
Maddie was my Old English Sheep dog that I had always dreamed of having one day.
One day my wish became true ,my husband bought her for me for our wedding anniversary. Although she was my baby she took the back seat once I had my two kids....something I will feel terrible forever.
Here she is dressed up like a little Parisian gal but down deep in her heart she was a true Italian gal who loved grapes and pasta.
When we first got her we lived in a rented duplex where the landlord grew grapes on the dividing fence. Somehow she decided that she wanted to try them out but unfortunately she ate the entire basketful that was there. We had to rush her to emergency and thought we were going to loose her but she luckily survived the ordeal. Maddie lived to be twelve years old until she developed cancer losing her right after the Ice Storm of 98 in March.
Maddie will be forever my very first baby dog of my married life.
I decided to write about Maddie because after writing about my ordeal with the mixing of meds I forgot…as usual, to mention that during the time I was ill Grace and Karson sat by my side on the bed for the entire time; they knew I was sick…imagine how precious , gentle and kind God’s creatures are. Never be heartless towards them for they are truly man’s best friend…your best friend!

A little token to wish you all a very HAPPY Easter.....Welcome to use as you wish...in a good way that is.
Quite old but aftertaking it out of the frame it looks like it came from a magazine a very long, long time ago.
Oooh and I became brave enough to share with you all a glimpse of the gal you read and talk to.....Keep in mind this was taken many years ago. Maybe another couple of years before I gather the courage to show you what I look like now.... age, weight and the cane...no big rush ha!!!
