Rosie finally rested around Noon today. She barked several times this morning and I saw her one back leg running so I hope that meant she was chasing squirrels or running in the field with Lex in her mind. We buried her under a giant holly in a beautifully dug hole Adam's friend, Gus, dug for us. He's in the army and says he's dug a lot of holes. This one was the perfect size for a small coffin, very rectangular with straight edges. It's what Rosie deserved, a very neat grave. Thank you Gus. James planted flowers on her grave and wrote her obituary which makes me laugh and cry. http://whoisvirginia.blogspot.com/
I miss her. She was my shadow. Lex is a bit somber today too. I wonder what goes through a dog's mind when they lose their littermate.

Sorry about Rosie. Losing a beloved pet is never easy. I'm sure she knew how much you guys loved her. Bye bye sweet Rosie. :)

By the way, I read the obituary. Tell James it was very creative, as we all know, sums him up in one word. :)
