Chickie is lucky to have TWO little ones.<br /><br />Robert<br />Thanks, I know once she got to me, there was no turning back. I wasn't strong enough to break it.<br /><br />Abe,<br />Thanks for the kind words. I will probably post about the shelter in the future. The two biggest pitfalls are getting your heart broken and your bank account destroyed. Other than that, it was a wonderful time in my life.<br /><br />Thank you Betsy. I do love to write and tell stories. The beauty of blogging is that is is not a solitary occupation like serious writing. The quick response from wonderful readers like I have been blessed with is so very satisfying. I learn every day from you all.Arkansas Pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14156004753267665579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1509736677359366469.post-35222638400487657392009-05-27T16:17:54.471-05:002009-05-27T16:17:54.471-05:00What a sweet story, Patti.

I ALWAYS like your blog. <br /><br />We do get attached to our pets, don't we??? They become our 'kids'---and it's hard to give them up.. Even though my life is full ---I do miss my sons so very very much. They all have their own lives now---and I have a hard time fitting into them now. <br /><br />Glad you had your tiny baby for so many years!!!!<br /><br />Hugs,<br />BetsyBetsy Banks Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223591156634767330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1509736677359366469.post-44586146091803688602009-05-27T15:13:11.818-05:002009-05-27T15:13:11.818-05:00You are a good writer and make a good story and wh...You are a good writer and make a good story and when dogs are involved it always brings a tear or two. I love dogs. And I would have loved these two.<br /><br />You need to tell how easy or how hard it is to start a dog rescue business.

Thank you. I just wish I turned out better...Reader,<br />Thank you. I just wish I turned out better in it.<br /><br />Blue,<br />I am trying to set up a translator but the ones I have tried are complex and I can't get the simple ones to add on. I'll keep trying. Have patience with me. <br /><br />Nitwit,<br />I understand about you and Luckie. I worry about making Mighty an orphan. I know for that reason, I won't replace him if he has to leave me. Kind of worry about my cats as those rascles live into their 20's.<br /><br />Kenju<br />I know it worked out best for Sissy as Sally's boyfriend ran over the little dog I gave them. It could have been Sissy. Still,my heart was wrong that day.<br /><br />Brighid,<br />Thank you. As a fellow dog lover, you can truly understand how attached we get.<br /><br />Robin,<br />It was probably just the time they were apart and she just didn't recognize her. I know it really hurt Sally at the time. It would have killed me to have my dog snarl at me. Hopefully it was not something Sally had earned.<br /><br />Pat,<br />Sally did have the bigger heart. However I would not trade those years with Sissy for a clear conscience.Arkansas Pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14156004753267665579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1509736677359366469.post-4014848692661103212009-05-27T12:38:38.146-05:002009-05-27T12:38:38.146-05:00This is such a sweet and poignant story, too...Sis...This is such a sweet and poignant story, too...Sissy was darling--bad picture or not...I can see how she would crawl into your heart in a minute! And I can also see that it would be near impossible to give her up!<br />A blogger friend in Florida, CHICKIE, has two dogs, and they both are just delightful to read about.

I try not to think about the day I may have to to make some decision to part wit her, either because of her old age, or my old age.NitWit1https://www.blogger.com/profile/07035004840443397537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1509736677359366469.post-16564459072720749642009-05-27T07:55:52.035-05:002009-05-27T07:55:52.035-05:00Dear Patti,
