<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I have been volunteering much of my time helping one of our local humane societies. I believe that saving just one dog will not change the world, but it will change the world for that dog. I have taken on the task of answering calls from people who can no longer keep their dog, have found a dog, or have lost their dog. Believe me when I say that all my dog calls, and all the stories I hear, do not have happy endings. Those stories, I will not talk about. Instead I would like you to meet the faces of the dogs that have recently been rescued, found foster homes, and finally found a new permanent home. All very happy ending stories, and today, with all the turmoil in our lives and in this world, we can certainly use a story,or eight, with a happy ending.</span><br />

The cows have arrived for their summer grazing, and 2.) we (Maddie) ran into a shocked Dachshund. I've never seen a dog with short little legs run so fast, and all Maddie wanted to do was say HI! Unfortunately, in my trying to get on with our hike I didn't not stop to take photos of either new encounter.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">This has been the hike that we have been taking since the weather has turned for the better here in SW Colorado. It is a great hot-weather hike because of the irrigation ditch that meanders through the forest. It's a good source for a dog that likes water to cool her shaggy body in, and then that same dog takes huge pleasure in shaking all over the person who is with her ... me. Very refreshing indeed!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Here is a small sampling of our many water crossings this morning.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">A brief moment of almost stillness, and believe me when I say that, it's practically killing her. Too much to see and sniff to just be sitting here to get her Big Fuzzy Wet photo taken.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">It was cold, but not too cold. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Sunny, but not at all windy.</span> <span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">All and all, a perfect day </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">to do my daily barn chores,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"> and then walk the dog. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"> I have finally learned to juggle </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">the leash, the camera, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">and this new dog!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">The dog, by the way, has not had her bath yet.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">It's been too cold, so she gets brushed and then goes for a good roll in the snow. Anyway, that seems to be working, at least until the muddy season hits. Hopefully by then it'll be warm enough to soap her up and give her the scrubbing that she has earned! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">So, here's my morning in photos. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"> I decided that it's about time to show my blogging friends that life goes on...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"> Same place, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">same daily chores, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">different DOG ... but as you would guess, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">she's starting to grow on us.</span><br />

</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">This has been a very nice break for me. Enough so, that I think I will do less posting and spend more time following all your blogs. I have really enjoyed reading your daily/weekly posts.</span> <span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Having said that, I do have something to share now.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Everyone paces themselves after the loss of an animal. I expect that the pace is different for each situation and for every individual. For me, in the beginning, it was hard to take a deep breath. It was hard to sleep. It was especially hard to do all the familiar things that I always did with my good friend Maggie. Within a very short time I realized that it was more than just missing Maggie. I knew that I needed to have another dog in my day to day life.</span> <span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Selfish, maybe, but about three weeks ago I started looking for a new canine-in-need, to call our family dog and</span> <span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">to help fill the big void in our lives.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"> I'm going to take a little blog break. Although I have been keeping up with some of my favorite blogs, I haven't felt very inspired to post anything lately. I guess you could say that I have blog-block. Hopefully, when I come back, I'll have something cheerful to write about. Until then, happy and interesting blogging to you all.</span></div></div>mjhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05101912051911090482noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-129015532073064963.post-85134363335336955192010-10-04T11:25:00.000-07:002010-10-04T11:55:41.716-07:00Maggie May - Last Words<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; text-align: center;">Let me begin by saying,</div><div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; text-align: center;">"Go give your dog a big Hug for me!"</div><div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; text-align: center;"><br />

I had not realized how many little unimportant things had become automatic, and unnoticed in my day to day routines with Maggie. I guess when you are retired, like I am, and spend most of your waking hours working at home, the way I do, you simply don't realize how often you are having a conversation with the dog! And so this past week, I found it very comforting to have those little conversations with her wonderful spirit. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Most of you who read my blog have your own animals, so I don't need to tell you what this week has been like for Toma and I. I've tried many times during the last few days to think of some final words to say about our Maggie. Unfortunately her life started out badly, and I'm sorry to say, ended sadly. What I now hope to remember is the ten great years in between, that was her <i>life</i>! </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">So here's to Maggie, the good listener, the hard worker, our protector and old friend. We will miss you, but there's no way that we'll ever forget you.</span></div><br />
