History

Is history repeating itself? Or have the Shankster and myself gone totally whacked with the loss of Elvis?

A little "History"

One day in March of 1993, our dog Hooch brought home one of the best dogs. She became one of our family when hers was not found and we called her Lil Bit. She was so cute. We found out after taking her to the Vet that she was about a year old. She has so much fur on her you couldn't even see her eyes. Hooch and Lil Bit were inseparable. Lil Bit followed Hooch everywhere. And she followed Hooch home or as we see it, Hooch brought her to us. We think Lil Bit was abused as she was so afraid of loud noises, particularly loud voices and Brooms. But after a couple of days under the back porch eating biscuits & pork chops, she made her way into our home and hearts.

After losing Elvis so suddenly, we are lost. It seems too quiet here. Seems like we are missing something. We aren't sure we are ready to go get another pet just yet, as we know none will replace our Elvis. Every dog we have ever lost, we have always had another to care for and spoil a bit more. But not this time...........Until this morning.

In the wee hours of the morning while it was still dark, the security camera and light came on. Upon viewing we realized it was a dog. Ok. No big deal. Until later. There was the dog again on the back porch. The Shankster went out to shoo it away. But instead of running she came up to the Shankster wagging her tail. The Shankster liked to never get back into the door alone. Poor thing had obviously been out all nite. Looked Cold. Looked hungry. I went over to grab some grub of Elvis's but Homie said not to feed her or we would never be rid of her.


I am a bad girl....didn't obey Homie. I handed the food to the Shankster and that little baby was starving. After eating she went on the front porch and went to sleep under the sun.






I think either Homie was right or History may have repeated itself...........or maybe the Shankster and I are totally nuts, or maybe just maybe Elvis is telling us she needs a home?





But How could you ignore this starring at you through the window all day?
