Me And My Shadow.

My baby, Shadow, went to play in heaven on September 26th. She was still a happy, loving, dancing dog, but her body functions were shutting down. Especially her Kidney's. I miss her horribly and always will. I am extremely thankful for little Emma. She snuggles with me and makes me feel better.

This is my 14 year old Lab, Shadow. She will be 15 December 2nd. She is smart and spry and dances when I come home. She protects me by barking when other dogs come close and sometimes the hair stands up when someone tries to enter my room. I have had her since she was 1 1/2 years old. She was an abused baby and I saved her from certain death.
Some people shouldn't have pets--or kids for that matter, but that is a different post.
When I got her I was going to rename her, because Shadow is really so over used for a Black Lab, but every time I turned around I tripped over her. I decided that she was my Shadow, ergo, the name stuck.
She is a gift and I can't imagine life without her.
