So true HP, we just keep what God let us have in urns to remember the time we had together. They all have their last collars and their best photo op beside them. Actually getting a bit crowded, we've had so many. I think God will let us in just for being so good to dogs and forgiving all our sins.
I think dogs and cats have the ability to sense spirits. I've watched them look at nothing apparently and follow it around, and I wonder what it is they see? No noises to startle them, but they wake quickly and look in the direction of whatever it is and I see nothing there, but they do. Must be good spirits, because they're not frightening them.
Years ago, long before we were married, my husband had a photo portrait of a man in what appeared to be late 19th or early 20th century attire. No one knew who the man was. My husband had picked it up at an auction. It was pretty cool to look at.
There was a small boy who wouldn't go into the living room because of that portrait. He said it scared him.
One day, while watching over my sister's little Yorkie, as we sat on the couch, the dog went ballistic. He shot off my lap, started snarling and barking viciously at the portrait. When I looked up, the face was looking at me, it's eyes somehow alive and menacing.
I snatched up the little dog and ran for the kitchen. That's where my husband found us--the dog still barking, me shaking--when he got home. He wanted to know what was wrong and I told him.
He walked in there to investigate. Next thing I knew, he was throwing a blanket over it and taking it down. He said it looked at him, too, and it gave him the creeps.
The terrorier at work!
I just love your dog. Was he helping to dispose of the gophers?
