She’s a year old now!

She’s a year old now!

When are you going to feed me? I’ve been very patient!

Jezebel is now our oldest living pet. Born in August 2003, at 16 1/2 she is only recently begun to show signs of age (I fear renal disease). We shall see. Getting her to strike such a dignified pose is usually a challenge, but today she obliged me.

What are the odds? I was driving the pups to Baring Vet today to get their nails trimmed, and just as I was approaching Howard on Fargo, I saw a young woman walking a dog that looked just like Bonnie, but with short hair. I rolled down my window:
Me: Oh my god, your dog looks just like mine! How old?
Her: A year!
Me: Did you adopt from PetCo?
Her: Yes!
Me: Oh my goodness, they are litter mates!!!
I pulled over and she came to my window. Her little girl was yapping. Bonnie was yapping.
Her: She’s a screamer!
Me: So’s Bonnie!
No… I didn’t get a photo, but going back to March I am certain the pup on the left is the one we saw as she is the only shorthaired puppy in the litter. (Bonnie is the one standing on the right)

And a photo from Sunday laziness . . .


Bonnie.
January 1, 2020


She had brush with cancer this year, but she’s doing well now. Grizzled and gray, but as much of a puppy as ever.

Bonnie loves to snuggle with people and under pillows. She’s just about 3 1/2 months now.
