My personal anniversary

A year ago today, we were playing with Lora, doggie dog, when she ran outside and ate poisoned meat the municipality put out on my neighbor's steps. I blogged. So did Delfino. There have been no more random poisonings. Perhaps, she did not die in vain.
There is now a gate completing my fence and the current house dog is trained to do her business in a sand patch in the garden. About a month later, a neighbor stopped to express condolences. Her Doberman was dead inside her fenced yard when she came home. Fences are not enough, we know. Pray it does not happen again.

I am sure Lora did not die in vain. I cannot believe it has been a year already. I am glad you have Punta to keep you company now.

So sorry about your dog once again, and truly hope it is over.
Was thinking of bringing my dog/s for the winter stay, but wonder if it's a good idea or not?

I was thinking about you this morning when I woke up, Z. I remember this day with great sadness. Lora was a special friend to you, and her memory is a gift for you and those you shared her with. I too belive that she did not die in vain. Take care!
