Unfazed

Another memory is of my surprise how Stella, the Drama Queen, adjusted so quickly and so well to Canadian winters.  Here’s Miss Fuzzbutt going deep into a snowdrift.

Waits

Stella waits for me to put down the camera, get up, and go inside, so she can also go in.

Achilles

My dog, my pet, my companion, my gem, my amazing discovery, a spirit dog.

Blond on blond

Blonde, senior Stella sleeps on the blonde dog bed, undisturbed by the camera’s beep and click.

Still rummaging through old photos. I’d say Achilles the former Texan has adapted quite well to winter.

Smile

I reviewed some old photos today, one of the hottest days of the year. It was refreshing to see this photo, and to smile at recalling watching fuzzbutt Stella go deep into a snowbank.
