    Thank you for posting that, it's so beautiful, Whispering Hands. It was the first time I cried today so it's getting better. I hope Henry, Django, Gracie, Brian and all the rest are having a great time together.

    Loulou, still so very sorry about Henry. I know full well how difficult your decision was because I was making it about the same time as you. It's the last loving thing we can do for our dogs and it's a part of why Henry had a long, happy life with you and your family. You cared for him enough to do what was best for him. I like your idea about how to memorialize him.

    and finally, sweet boy Django....you had a hippie mom who gave you a hippie name and you lived a hippie's life. I see a lot of you in Piper and have told her I expect her to grow up to be my "sweet, easygoing buddy" (we're not quite there, yet). Piper and Django are definitely somewhat connected by doggie genetics.

    I especially love the two pictures below :D. I should know, but I'm not sure if you still have Penny...?

    Yes, we still have Penny. She is very cute and loves to play.

    image

    She's not much of a cuddler though and she mostly gravitates to her dad. She seems to think I'm OK though. :))

    Piper will grow up to be a sweet companion. Django was a MONSTER when he was a puppy. He destroyed more things than any puppy I've ever known. Too bad I never kept an inventory! I used to question my judgement in choosing him. Then when he was about a year old he suddenly settled down and became really sweet and easygoing, although he wasn't above occasionally sneaking something out of the laundry basket and chewing it to shreds. :))

    But funny you should call him my hippie dog. Unless I'm mistaken, I've never explained about my dogs' names in this thread. Of the 8 shelties who've owned me, most of them have been registered with the AKC with names derived from Pete Townshend songs.

    We had Mad Shadows Baba O'Riley (Riley):

    image

    Mad Shadows Behind Blue Eyes (Tess):

    image

    Mad Shadows A Little Is Enough (Buffy):

    image

    and Mad Shadows Pinball Wizard (Pete):

    image

    Django was Mad Shadows Hippie Gypsy. B-)

    image

    Pretty appropriate, eh? I'm sure ya'll can guess what song that one came from.

    I miss my boy very much. Yes, I will get another dog eventually. I always know when I'm ready. In the meantime, I promise more pictures of Penny.

    Piper still looks so tiny. How much does she weigh?

    (This has been a better day so far - no crying yet. Although Brian's ashes came in the mail. That's kind of a bummer. But seeing Piper made me happy.)

    Awwwww. Piper is so cute. :x
    Ann, she isn't tiny. In Denver, she jumped on me and gave me kisses--almost knocked me over. =))

    And I hear you about the days getting a little better. But I have to go pick up Django's ashes at the vet this afternoon and I kind of dread it.

    But Piper makes all of us smile.

    that was her intent! Hang in there.

    Piper tips the scales at 34 pounds.....she's either a big little dog or a little big dog (probably the latter). We sometimes call her "Peanut" because, compared to Gracie, that's what she is. :D

    She loves the snow! However WE don't like the -22* without the wind chill. Saturday was the first day that is was above 0 this entire week... might think about some booties for her, but she does not like anything on her paws

    Gracie tolerated booties but she really needed them due to the little ice balls that would get between her toes and stick to her super furry feet.

    Piper spent her first night on her hoomans' bed. I can't say I slept great.....
