The hole left in our home with Scamp gone was just huge and unbearable. Really I was "just looking". Well I found Sandy, a three year old sweet Chihuahua. She's a larger one, actually looks like a fox, probably a mix. She's very calm and gentle, except when giving our cats a good chase. She has helped heal our hearts a little.....she's not my Scamp, but she's really trying to work her way into my heart and my kids took to her immediately.

Love you all for your kind words, thoughts and prayers. It really helped. Gotta go....having a hard time focusing through the tears......
It does help to have a new one to love. I got a new kitten three weeks after losing pippi in December... We thought Tux was a male, but she got her first heat and proved us wrong! She was spayed two days ago and is doing well now. A very sweet little girl, but more impish than my sweet loving kitty who died was this one's age now. They all have their own distinct personalities.

Sandy is the name of our English Setter puppy (Sandy Beach). I'm so glad you were able to be adopted and rescued by a new furry friend.

Scamp will always be remembered. When we lost our first golden retriever "Corky", it broke our hearts. Plus he was the first and only dog my kids had ever known. A year later, when we finally adopted another golden retriever "Buc" from a rescue group, it was my kids who told me "You know Dad? We were lucky we had "Corky" as our first dog, because he taught us how to love dogs and now we can adopt and love "Buc".

Scamp taught you how to love dogs. And now Sandy is the lucky benefactor.
