The whole world seems to be letting out a content sigh today. The Billings transport and the crazy week of fostering and vet appointments is done. The dogs all trickling into their new homes. We only have two little foster girls left in this area. Barcardi and Audrey....both are super sweet girls with no baggage. I am sure they will find homes soon. Even Roman my god-dog Afghan Hound boy is back here with me after several weeks away.

Chester the birthday boy!!


The icing on the cake is today we celebrate 13 years of life with Chester. He is the cherished companion of Trish in Billings. Remember when we were little we counted every day of our life. We were not just 5 years old we were 5 and a HALF years....because that 6 months made us so much more mature. As dogs age something similar happens. After a dog hits about 12 years we stop counting in whole years. Those 6 month markers some how become as important as back when we were 5. We begin to feel the importance of those cherished months. So today while Chester celebrates 13 years with ice cream....I will celebrate with him and my whole pack will get a dollop of rich creamy yogurt....after all it is Tigger's 14 year and 7 month birthday too.
