More pictures of our dear Heidi
Here are more pictures of Heidi. She was having trouble breathing Wednesday morning and we took her to the animal hospital. They took x-rays and said she was in heart failure and that her lungs were filled with fluid, and that she was dying. I held her in my arms until they took her in to the other room to put her to sleep, since she was struggling unsuccessfully to breathe.
Our dear friend is gone
On Wednesday, Feb. 4th at 4:25 am our dear doggie and friend - Heidi - died. Her unconditional love and good spirits were our treasured gift from God for over 15 years. She will be greatly missed.

A Dog's Advice
If we took a dog's advice we would learn stuff like:
* When loved ones come home, always run to greet them.
* Never pass up an opportunity to go for a joy ride.
* Take frequent naps.
* Always stretch before rising.
* Thrive on attention and let people touch you.
* When you are happy, dance around and wag your entire body.
* No matter how often you are scolded, don't buy into the guilt thing and pout.
* Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.
* Eat with gusto and enthusiasm, and stop when you have had enough.
*When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by and nuzzle them gently.
*Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.
