Dec 31, 2013 Promise of good things in the new year

January 2013, Rosie and I did what we loved to do, sat and stared at the ocean. I don’t know what she saw, I don’t know why she loved the ocean so much, but it seemed to give her comfort and she seemed to love being there just as much as she loved her whipped cream. She always looked forward, […]

Rosie’s only Malibu Christmas

Sometimes I look at the photos and wish I had paid more attention to being in focus etc. but I never dreamed that we’d only have such a short time. Here are photos of Rosie’s Christmas in 2012.

Dec 24, 2013 Rosie makes Dogster’s top 12 dogs of Christmas

I miss Rosie. It’s just that simple. I am proud of my little princess for being so stoic, so loving, so funny and so amazing that she touched people the way she did. She made the Dogster top 12 dogs of Christmas – I just wish she was here so I could tell her and hold her up to the […]

Dec 20, 2013 Basil going to his forever home

I took Basil to the airport this morning and handed him to his human sister Katrina. They are on their flight to Baltimore where Basil’s new mom Barbara is very excited to see her new boy.

Dec 19, 2013 Express your love this Christmas

Every day is tough and every Thursday is more so. As Christmas approaches and everyone is posting their cute Santa photos, the disappointment and pain is felt anew.

Everything Rosie magnet to help raise $ for Spay and Neuter

Last year Rosie posed for this photograph with Santa and she posed with friends who made a donation to APE for their mobile spay/neuter program. Since my little one is not here to do this again, we are offering these magnets to anyone who donates $25 to the mobile spay neuter program. The mobile unit goes into low income neighborhoods […]

Dec 12, 2013 – 9 weeks since Rosie passed away

It’s week nine and it’s not getting easier. The foster pups are cute but they only make me sadder. I tried to take my mind off this by wandering the aisles of stores and looking at decorations. And of course what do I see – a Christmas stocking that looks like Rosie posed for it. I don’t have the energy […]

Dec 7, 2013 – 8 weeks since Rosie passed away

Thursday was week 8 and I am sure that some of you were expecting to see a post. It isn’t that I didn’t have something to say it’s that I was not sure how to say it in a way others would understand. There is a hoarding situation just about 30 minutes from where Rosie came from and a friend […]
