[Dailydrool] Remembering

Sun Sep 3 17:25:58 PDT 2017

Thank you for your thoughtful words.  I have friends who still kindly, laughingly remember my 2 Bassets who are long gone to the bridge.  I don't know how anyone could be owned by a Basset and not have a notebook of funny memories and antics to recount.  Though I'm Bassetless now, I still love the Drool for memories it frequently congers up.  I now have a small breed and we are a registered therapy dog team.  Beverly your words are so true, you never know what impact your dog may have on every person he/she comes in contact with.  The power of dogs is awesome.
Margie Downum
Mandy, Bosco and want-a-be Rosie, all at the bridge

> Our Emma loves to be massaged from the shoulders to the base of the spine as she does her downward dog pose. Bobo used to enjoy that as well. Emma takes the pose and I cup my hands around her with my thumbs along her spine and massage my way down her arched back. When I'm done, she does a little skitter on her short legs all around the room. We tried to give Scout the Doga rub, but it would throw her off-balance. But then, she was a long-legs. She was a belly rub dog. Bobo would not tolerate any form of scratching. You were guaranteed a nip. Emma likes it, though. Dobby likes to sit in a lap and be petted, but he never offers his belly for a rub. I've always been fascinated at how uniquely individual every dog is.
