A hugely happy memory is Angel K's puppyhood.
For those new to the blog, K was my chocolate lab trail buddy and heart dog. She died at age 8 from osteosarcoma, back in 2012. I don't write about her as much these days but I feel like she is always with me and helps guide me as I navigate the world with Shyla.
One of my friends commented that K was "almost too cute" as a puppy. I have to agree.
Her eyes were special even when she was 8 weeks old.
She also loved to make eye contact with me, even as a tiny puppy. Many dogs are never eager to see out eye contact with humans.
She could be very serious, even as a puppy.
But she also could be playful!
Beautiful photographs, priceless memories. Thanks for sharing, KB.
ReplyDeleteI am sure you are not the only one who is upset,panicky about the future, and seeking comfort in a safe past. K is the perfect answer to today, and her photos tell us there is love and beauty in every day, we need to sit a while and let it find us. Many hugs and love from NZ .
ReplyDeleteYou are not alone in your feelings about limiting media coverage. I had a routine physical yesterday and my blood pressure was higher than normal and I told them that it was because of the election results. I could just feel my pressure rising all day Tuesday and it still was high the next day. I hope that with keeping away from upsetting coverage my blood pressure will return to normal. I'm telling you all this to let you know that you are not alone.

Thank you, Cindy. Knowing that I'm not alone helps immensely.
DeleteCutest baby ever!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cutie and her unique spirit certainly shined, even at that age! I know she is missed every day, and remembered by so many like me.
ReplyDeleteI agree "too cute"
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Buddy
Those eyes. Oh how sweet and so in touch with you.
ReplyDeleteHappy Crazy Love

I do know how you feel. Ellie has been on my mind all week. Yesterday marked three years since her sudden death on November 10, 2013. I think my thoughts would have been about her even if I were not so distressed by the election. And thinking now of how much she meant to me brings more happy memories than sad. Thank whatever gods there be for sending us such dogs. They will live forever in our memories.
ReplyDeleteOMD!! What a beautiful baby-dog! If you read Ki'm blog from Golden Pines, Todd has some excellent suggestions for managing post election stress. Just sayin'...
ReplyDeleteluckily we had the Blogville election to take our minds off the other one.
ReplyDeleteK was a beautiful puppy - beautiful memories

What a beautiful puppy K was♥ Hugs to you, KB!
ReplyDeleteI'm thankful for all the moments you had with your angel... and thankful for every moment we will have with our pups...
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing in the world as cute as a Lab puppy.
ReplyDeleteIt has been a godawful week. Take care of yourself. <3
So cute! :)
ReplyDeleteOMD, what adorable puppy pictures! Angel K was something special indeed.
ReplyDeleteMa hasn't watched the news since Tuesday morning. She knew better. She didn't sleep at all Tuesday night, got sick, and was nauseous all day Wednesday, and if it wasn't for her nausea meds for her migraines, she would have spent those two days in the bathroom. She peeked today at a blog she reads, and saw the horrors have already started. she closed it, and realized that media is off limits for the foreseeable future. You are not alone. Butts....PUPPIES!!!!! OMD, K was just tooooooo cute!!!!! Okays, so I was adorables, butts wowsa!
ReplyDeleteKisses,
Ruby ♥♥♥
That was a most wonderful flashback, such a sweetie.
ReplyDeleteWonderful memories. There is just something about the Choc-lab's eyes. Must be a trait.
ReplyDeleteHave to agree with the stress levels here too - what we are seeing and hearing from our new "leader" are certainly not very encouraging. Concern for the future is putting it mildly.
ReplyDeleteBut oh that K - she had that love and intensity in her eyes from the very start. What an adorable puppy she was!!!
She was a little doll of a puppy! So cute!
ReplyDeleteOh gosh, she was just so adorable! I'm sorry that you lost her at such a young age.
