pixie was something else. she knew what it meant when i said 'bath', and she would disappear.
so then we would stay time for a b-a-t-h. well, she figured that out, too. she moved in with kelly full time when kelly (our daughter) got her own place. until then, she would sleep in the bed with me and tony.
but she still loved her mother, and she and ceinwyn would 'argue' over who got to sit in my lap when pixie and kelly would come to visit. she had a full, long life and was spoiled rotten. she was fearless, and would even bark at and chase after the neighbors wolfhound. we'd take her on the boat, and when we'd jump in the water, well, she'd jump in, too...swim from person to person.
nothing better than a good dog.
as i read the other day:
if you want to know who loves you more....lock your spouse and your dog in the trunk. an hour later, open the trunk and see which one is happy to see you!
