Harley


Well, I am not a dedicated blogger but I couldn't resist telling you this touching moment from the life (and death) of my beloved dogs. Our family dogs live anywhere between 14 and 18 years. Recently our 15 year old white German Shepherd, Harley, died. When we brought her home from the vet and dug the hole, my 4 year old Golden Retriever, Brady, crawled in the hole and laid down. We got her out and buried our beloved Harley. After we put the dirt over her, Brady (Golden Retriever) laid on top of the fresh dirt for 2 hours. That was four days ago and it is obvious that we are not the only ones missing Harley. In this picture you can see Harley, Brady, and their dear friend, Bella (EJ & Forrest's bulldog). Dogs really do make good friends in life and in death. We could all take note on how to grieve.
