FOREVER FRIDAY with CATURDAY ART

Willow was our family dog before Dougie Dog came to be with us.

She crossed her Rainbow Bridge in October 2015 (posting here).

Just a short time ago, while cleaning up old photo files I came across
this beautiful photo of Willow which I don't remember ever seeing before!

Tomorrow is Caturday Art, we won't be taking part as we have a special post planned for the
"Laughter is the Best Medicine" Event going on with Blogville Arts and Entertainment.

So, we are posting Willow's photo today, our Art Gallery presentation for this week, just showing
her with a very slight "brushed" effect to enhance her soft furs.  Caturday Art is sponsored each
weekend by our friends Athena and Marie, you can join in or view more art, just click here. 

THANK YOU

OVER THE RAINBOW BRIDGE ~ WILLOW

Most who come to Zoolatry know I live with my daughter and son-in-law and kindergarten-grandson ~ and our family dog, dear old Willow.  She was around ten years old, a beagle mix hound and a rescue dog, originally from the Tampa Bay area of Florida.  Yet, though born and raised midst sunshine and palm trees, she happily took to the falling leaves and snowfalls of the metro DC area when the family moved north a few years ago.  A few aches and pains of aging, but in good health.  A bit grumpy sometimes (there's that aging thing again!  I personally know it well!) but so much loved by her family ... Willow, usually called "Bubs" was by and large my daughters dog, always at her side, waiting at the door for her to come home from work, trailing her every movement throughout the house, her shadow.  Yesterday afternoon, without warning, Willow suffered a massive seizure, perhaps a stroke and was gone within a few short hours.  Efforts to revive her, to bring her back to her loving family were not successful.  Willow, may you rest in peace and run free forever.

WORDLESS WEDNESDAY
