Rainbow Remembrance Day #FFHT

   Today we are honoring our pets that have left our homes but not our hearts. It is Rainbow Remembrance Day hosted by Zee & Zoey. This is also the last Friday of the month which means it is Fractured Fryday Hairy Tails or #FFHT hosted by Murphy and Stanley. Of course, every Friday is our Pet Parade hop so I am offering a three for one today. Enjoy our Rainbow Remembrance and watch for the FFHT sentence of the month; “It would be really embarrassing if everyone knew…”

   This past June I participated in my friend Oz the Terrier’s blog hop, “Bravo for Special Moments.” I chose to write about our first puppy, Madison the German Shepherd. She crossed the Rainbow Bridge in 1997. As often happens when I start writing, I lost myself in her story. It started out happy and as I went through the years, it eventually came to the time she had to leave us.

Bravo for Special Moments

If you are fortunate in life there are many times where you can say, “Bravo for special moments.”  I consider myself very lucky in that respect.  When Oz the Terrier asked for bloggers to join in a secret “Special Moments” blog hop, I had to make the choice of which moments I would share.  Everyone knows that I share special moments with Bentley and Pierre all of the time, so I decided to do something different.  Consider this a Flashback Friday complete with a Rick Springfield tee shirt!

I still remember the very first time that we decided it was time to add to our family.  We had just gotten married and yearned for the pitter-patter of four tiny paws.  I had three cats but wanted a puppy very badly.  We decided on a German Shepherd and set out to find our new best friend.  Let me tell you, we found a gem.
