A gal and her dog

I always had hunting dogs till I gave up the sport and took up photographing birds.  Baron our first GSD (German shedding dog) was a gentle giant. Lily followed the big guy was a rescue. She lived indoors thus  followed Barb everywhere and I occasionally had to fight for my side of the bed. Some pictures of happy days last fall follow....
 

 
Methinks, once I get the proper papers signed by the local vet, my gal and her dog can be reunited at Memory Care for our regular walks.  And even some stays in the "cottage itself.....:)

  2. I also hope your dog gets to see your wife, and vice versa. An animal can bring so much joy in all circumstances.

  3. I think this is magnificent. Walks at a minimum, and cottage time if it can suit everyone.

  9. It is wonderful that you will have a chance to reunite your wife with your dog. If i were in that situation, that would mean EVERYTHING to me. What a comfort. I wish you smooth sailing in the process.

  10. Dogs are powerful medicine and if she is allowed into the Memory Care living areas, she will make Barb and a lot more people feel a lot better!

  11. Wonderful. I know that will mean so much to Mrs. T, even if she isn't sure just who Lily is. She will love her regardless.

  12. I hope your dog will be allowed to visit your wife. In my husband’s memory care a lady came often at lunch time to visit her husband and brought her big standard poodle – everyone loved it. My husband was a cat person and the memory care had a special moving cat that is used for people with dementia. He loved that cat – did not realize by then that it was not a real cat, but it made him happy to pet it.
