I have been so blessed to experience the unconditional love of a dog. And now I must experience the emptiness and loss of this wonderful dog. Our Penny Girl. Our perpetual puppy. My sweet girl. This dog was my soul for 13 beautiful years. Life without her is tough. She was a feral little girl – kind of scared and timid. And yet – put her outside and this dog was totally in her element. SHe ran faster than any dog I have ever seen. She was thrilled to go for walks, and lived to explore the outdoors. I am certain that she was part coyote. And she was my friend, maybe my best friend. She looked for me, she trusted me, and she comforted me.

As I just reread this post, I don’t want to do an injustice to another great dog of ours….Pepper. Pepper was very different from Penny. We were Pepper’s pack. Pepper just wanted to be with us at all times. She didn’t love the outdoors, she didn’t love running around with other dogs….she just loved us.
