Nico was feeling a bit fiesty when that picture was shot. But he's
actually a pretty well behaved little guy. Here's a less devilish shot.

Harry is a yorkie-poo and Spike was an AKC registered Yorkshire Terrier. Neither shed.

To Illustrate that gentleness, our 4th pooch is a 15 year old teacup poodle that is totally blind. The Wolfies treat her like a long lost pack member. They make a genuine effort to keep her out of harms way, and sort of "herd" her around when they are all out back. Of course the main reason being to keep her from falling into the bomb craters they've dug during times of bordom... We had, two, then briefly eight!, but just kept one, so Pard on the left is the off spring of Grendel and Isabeau. They are the most lazy good for nothing beasts that could ever take up floor space, yep they's house dogs, and we love 'em

Yup, those Wolfies are gentle giants. I'd love to see a pic of your senior citizen teacup poodle with them sometime

Ahhh yes...the illusions that are available to one, when armed with patience, a telephoto lens and an instant in time.

This, is far more typical of the goof.

She was just old and had many things wrong with her. This morning she could not stand up. I would pick her up and she would fall down. By the time I got her to the vet she was better in that she could stand and walk a little. The vet said well time in between visits was getting shorter. It was a matter of quality of life. I asked if he would put her down and he said yes. I agreed. I still have the cat but he is old also and has a few health issues. It's just hard.

I'm so sorry to hear this. I understand your pain since DH and I had our beloved cat put down last Saturday. Take care of yourself and remember the joy you two shared.
