and not only will he not scold you, but he will make a fool of himself too."

You can say any foolish thing to a dog, and the dog will give you a look that says, 'My God, you're right! I never would've thought of that!'

"Don't accept your dog's admiration as conclusive evidence that you are wonderful."
                            --Ann Landers
It's been a pretty tough life for her:
She perfected the art of sleeping pretty much anyplace

In late 2002, Debi was diagnosed as having a lymphatic form of cancer.  Adding this
to her Cushing's Disease did not help her long term prospects.  We kept her pain-free
and fed her pretty much anything she wanted - she liked scrambled eggs, McDonalds plain
hamburgers and cheeseburgers, sometimes with catsup.  She pretty much slept all the time
as she grew weaker and weaker.  Debi, as always, kept a good attitude.
We'll miss her alot.

"You think dogs will not be in heaven? I tell you, they will be there long before any of us." 
   - Robert Louis Stevenson 
"If I have any beliefs about immortality, it is that certain dogs I have known will go to heaven, and very, very few persons." 
        - James Thurber

One of the last pictures of Debi.  You can see how tired she is getting.
