Sometimes I get lost on my own home and sometimes I am very frightened when my missus leaves me for awhile. (hangs head) she is my world, for I can barely see now. I am so old for a big dog. If I ever thought she would be gone forever I would not know what to do, so that is why I am incredibly anxious when she leaves. (picks head up) we have a one eyed rocking limping kitty named Mr Smitty who lives with us. He is a good house mate for he cleans up after himself and doesnt take my toys. Every once in awhile my Missus takes in a stray or someone who needs a respite home before they go onto their forever missus or mister. She doesnt do it too often for it tires me out. I know I am loved by her. Sometimes I will come up by her couch and move her coffee table out of the way just so we can cuddle. I lived in a cement kennel all my life until she came to get me. Now I have a home. Welcome and it was very nice of you to start this thread so we can share this world our misters and missuses love so much!

hi Story...let's us creaky old dogs find an out of the way corner and hold down some carpet! love Ivan
