Yesterday would have been Boo’s birthday. She was a wonderful rescue shepherd who lived with us for a short time at the end of her life. She was 12 when she came to us. She was an elegant old girl who brought much joy to our lives in the limited time that we had her.
We were lucky that she “found us”! And we loved her very much.
She left us in April 2004. It’s hard to believe that it has been five years since she was here.

This is a painting of Boo that I have in my living room. I see her every day and am grateful for the time we had with her.
As a tribute to her I would encourage anyone thinking of adopting a pet to consider a senior. Older pets need good homes and they are often the best pet to bring into a busy household because they don’t need housebreaking and training. They just need love and companionship….and they give all of that and more back to you. Think about it.
We miss you Boo.
