Ratface aka Holly


So in my previous post I mentioned that our dog had died, we are all very sad and shocked about it. Our dear Holly dog had bone cancer that progressed very rapidly, it was 6 weeks from her first symptoms to the day we brought her to the vet to put her down. She was a precious lab who behaved like a puppy till the last week of her life. Everyone in the family has said that she was their dog which shows how much she was truly a family dog. The last 6 months of her life she had become closer and closer to me, spending a ton of time in my room with me sleeping either in my bed or on the floor next to me. She was a good friend and a companion for me. It has been a month since we brought her to be put down and I am not missing her any less.
It was a hard way to begin preparing for Christmas, we had a gap in our family that we needed to fill. So despite dad's protestations that we would never have four dogs again we began to search. The Tuesday after our dearest Holly left we came home with another one: Levi. He is a sweet lab mix (we suspect that he is part great dane) that we all fell in love with, though I do admit that I was skeptical at first.  He is secretly a wookie at heart, he loves tho yodel when he is bored!
Please do forgive my prolonged absence and continue to send me reminders to post!
Glory to God for All Things
