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.

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

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

A roll in the grass feels good no matter your age.

As does a vigorous shake when you’re done.

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

Stella checks what’s going on behind her.

Achilles is ready for autumn.

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

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.

Achilles waits for our foster Lucy to leap off the deck and continue the chase game.
