(Note that the dog pictured in the header is not Icy – but looks just like her!) This week I will be talking about IcyQ – aka Icy – aka Bing. And if you were sad about Casey losing Mick, you will LOVE this one! After Spanky died, Casey and I were dogless. We had …

Thursday “Throwback” Thoughts – May 18, 2023 Edition: Dogs Part 5
This week I’m going to talk about Mick. His is a shorter story, and I hope that it had a happy ending for him…it didn’t for me, I will always feel guilt when I think about Mick… When Casey was still a baby, her dad wanted to get a young dog that she could grow …

I know I have photos of Spanky Marie somewhere…real photos, not digital. I have boxes of pictures somewhere. But not where I can put my hands on them.

My second dog had a sad ending. It wasn’t my fault, or his…according to breeders and even an animal behaviorist I consulted… As soon as I graduated from college and got my own place the first thing I wanted to do was get a dog. Within days of moving in I was at the shelter …

(PLEASE NOTE that the dog in the photo isn’t the dog about which I wrote here; I didn’t have a digital camera in the 60s or 70s.) Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about dogs. We have 2 of them, of course, and they each old a special place in my heart. But I’ve also …
