Anyone who likes Dogs is good with me. I know very well the pain of losing Nellie t'Bell and the joy and eventual knowledge of sadness with Princess Gracie Belle. GR's are great, I've never had the privilege of having one but I've known a couple. And your comment on the zoomies and the rest made me laugh.
Here's what I've sent to friends and people who have had the Nellie experience...
There is a cycle of love and death that shapes the lives of those who choose to travel in the company of animals. It is a cycle unlike any other. To those who have never lived through its turnings and walked its rocky path, our willingness to give our hearts with full knowledge they will be broken seems incomprehensible. Only we know how small a price we pay for what we receive; our grief, no matter how powerful it may be, is an insufficient measure of the joy we have been given.
Happy New Year Everyone!

I more than like what you have written. Still hard though and is so very unfair. I have received far more from my Dog friends than I deserve.
Happy New Year

There are better things to do in bed than post on SbStk! But thanks for the thought. Back atcĥa
Asleep by 22:00, you’re right!
I don't know about anyone else, but I'm hoping 2025 brings us an audio-video clip of you performing with your electric accordion! ♪ ♫
Soon
But not now
Newsom prefers the gas-powered accordions? 🤣
Thanks for being among the first to jump on board. Maybe you should post one of your DooL vids!
Here’s to 2025 and maintaining the Cool Hand Mindset…
