The picture of her with the no dogs sign on the beach is priceless!

Otis - 106 pound lab/Dane mix, lost his right front leg to osteosarcoma on Febuary 9, 2016.  Four rounds of carboplatin completed in April, 2016.  Lung mets August 25, 2016.  Said goodbye too soon on September 4, 2016.   Lost his adopted sister, Tess, suddenly on October 9, 2016. likely due to hemangiosarcoma.  

Wherever they are, they are together.

And as for me ????

Nothing, nada, no food, no treats, nothing at all ...

I am sooooo starving and Mom just doesn't care ....

She said I wouldn't like her lunch (ratatouille and roast potatoes) but I pointed out just because I never tried it didn't necessarily mean I wouldn't like it.

But Mom said she was SURE I wouldn't like it as it's all veggies and herbs ...

Well ... all I can say is life is not fair sometimes ...
