This last weekend our family suffered a tragic loss. For anyone who has ever owned a pet, and lost them, you will know the hole that it leaves, not just in your home, but in your heart, when they are gone.

Her name was Dottie, she was 15.

My Friend

After we visited the vet, we decided to go for a long drive and attempt an errand. We didn’t want to go home to an empty house, if we did then it was official. We wanted to have her for just a little longer.

While out we came across a dahlia that was the same color of her collar. Since she was my garden helper, we decided she needed it.

We call it Dottie’s Dalia.

We love you Dot, our Bug dog.
