Now here's a real walk about with dad.

RIP Molly
She was my friend through some rough times.
I did my best for her while she was sick.
There was a lot of personality and attitude in her, right up until the last couple of days. She lost her sight in 2019 and it barely slowed her down, but her recent heart and lung problems were more than she could handle.

Sending love. Fly free, Molly.
 
I used to live in a pretty rough neighborhood, lots of big dogs who got out. The mailman was the first delivery person I knew who carried dog treats instead of a spray can (maybe he had that too) and he would always have a parade of big dogs walking the route with him. It was pretty awesome.
 

when i was a teenager, (early 80's) someone gave me a puppy in lieu of money they owed me. almost a year went by, and when christmas came, i left the dog at home with the cat and the doves, and went to my girlfriend's party. when i came home that night, the tree was on it's side, all the gifts were chewed, the dog was nowhere to be seen. she was "hiding" between the stove and fridge. i put her in the back yard to clean up, and discovered that she had eaten alot of wire from the lights. also, NONE of those little metal caps from the christmas balls could be found. many branches on the tree had been stripped. when my sister and her husband got home, i explained everything. we took my dog to a pet hospital where they x rayed her. she ate all the metal caps, lots of tinsel, some wire and lights, pieces of tree, and who knows what else. they said she needed expensive surgery or she would get sick and die. i didn't have the money. i thought she was a gonner. over time, she passed lots of tinsel, some paper, and some little bits of wire. but she never even got sick. she never passed any of the metal caps and hooks. she lived a healthy and happy life and lived to be almost 19. her name was sable, she was collie and shepard mix. she loved everyone, no exceptions, and was 100lb lap dog who loved hot sauce. that's a story for another day
