@becsbuddy, JK, Oh, be still my heart. That picture is so adorable.
I found a painting of Roxie that caught one of my favorite Roxie looks.
It says.....Don't you know it's 5:00 pm? Where is my dinner? @johnbishop, can you make this image smaller. I can't even grab it.
My little Roxie used to like to lie on folks. I have just let my last Cavalier King Charles Spaniel cross the rainbow bridge and fly with the angels. They are truly "Love Sponges". Oh, the joys and the memories. I don't trust myself physically to care for another Cavalier. And I don't want to leave one behind. Two of my three Cavaliers were therapy dogs in an Alzheimer's center where my father was housed.
Unbelievably, I am still grieving for Roxie. When I first wake up, I listen for her snoring at the foot of the bed. I am waiting for the day when the joyous memories of having Roxie will far outweigh the pain of losing her. It's not happening. Please be safe and protected from harm. Sleep well. Chris

@artscaping They really are very special little companions, so loving. I still think of him a lot, and it was 2006 when I had to put him to sleep. My daughter was the person who wanted a dog so together we scoured breed books and decided on a Cavalier. She was in 5th grade at the time, my son was in 6th, so lots of kids in and out of the house. I wanted a very non-threatening dog and he surely was.
