Today's post is a tribute to my darling boy, Joey. My 14 year old Shih Tzu died last night. :( In his heyday, he was a bird-chasing dog with a penchant for apples and low tolerance for people who took too long to serve him his meals. He barked whenever I asked "Who's my darling boy?" and he worked hard for a piece of doggy chocolate. While I'm torn over his passing, instead of mourning, I'm going to celebrate the wonderful memories he left me. Miss you my darling boy.
