It Has Been a Long, Long Time.

I think my long, dry spell is over. So much has happened this summer, mostly good, hell, mostly great, but yesterday will remain in our hearts as the "defining moment" of summer 2006.

Yesterday we said goodbye to our beloved Chunky.

Chunk was many things to many people, she was Christine's faithful and constant companion for more than 10 years. She was the first Shih Tzu with whom I had any kind of real contact, and she taught me, through her actions and her attitude, that "little dogs" have no preconceived ideas about stature, they can be, and are, huge characters in small bodies. Chunkamunk was one of those individuals that waltzed through life to her very own, unique soundtrack. She was an amazingly independent dog who asked for little and gave much. We loved her when she graced us with her presence, we will love her for the rest of our lives. Goodbye, good dog.

it's amazing how our canine counterparts truly are an extension of who we are and what we believe. they share in every aspect of our lives - the trials and tribulations.......times of illness, prosperity, tragedy and dreams. a life with a dog/friend is bittersweet........may you find peace in knowing you've been blessed to have crossed her path and that we truly believe two souls cannot be forever separated by death.
