Our Connie Was Never One To Make A Fuss. . .

Sweet dreams, sweet Connie. . . .

In September 2007, we adopted an older Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Connie through Cavalier Rescue. She moved right into our home and our hearts, and became best buddies with our other Cavalier, Dion.







Wednesday night she did her usual "Princess and the Pea" routine on our study sofa -- her habit of tipping over sofa pillows and climbing up to lie on top of them. I took pictures.


I don't know why I took pictures then, maybe it's the habit I've gotten from blogging, but I'm glad I have them.

Less than 12 hours later, Connie left us. Unexpectedly and quickly. In the same simple, no-fuss way in which she lived, our Connie died.

I'm glad we had this sweet lady for a year and a half; it was not long enough, but then it never is long enough, is it?
