Here are pix of Grizz, a wonderful chocolate lab rescued a couple of years ago by my sister Susie and her husband Nick, aka Skipper. Grizz was found alone in a field near an empty house in Windsor, CO, where he had been hanging around for a couple of days. There was a terrible thunderstorm with hail while he was out. Susie and Skipper loaded him up and took him home. He was in sad shape - very overweight, lots of medical problems and already an old dog. No one was looking for him - his background remains a mystery. Girl dogs Annie and Bonnie accepted him easily because of his serene manner. Grizz is declining now and everyone is already grieving the loss of this wonderful, loving dog. My favorite memory of Grizz is watching him laying on his back outside in the sun, wiggling and bicycling his legs and singing for the pure joy of the moment. Hugs and kisses to you, gentle boy!
Maybe Mr. Grizz will surprise us all and I will see him in my house when I move! It doesn't look that way, but miracles do happen!
