The Elliott Chronicles

And I've been thinking bout our lifetime
Like I never have before
A hundred years or a hundred days
A hundred times no difference, babe
Promise you I'd want a hundred more

A collection of buddy pictures - also known as Elliott invading Spirits personal space!

25/06/2025

I was sorting my virtual picture box this morning, the never ending chore of organizing photos, 21st century style. My purpose was to finally get ALL of the pictures of our dogs, past and present, into one folder for future, further organization. I knew I had at least one picture of Elliott before his surgery. I had put this comparison together for our neighborhood Facebook group, comparing Elliott (before we named him) to two other stray dogs that had been around at that time. We think they might be litter-mates, but not sure. We are sure that Django and Ghost are litter-mates. They were both strays, and they were captured and adopted and both went to good homes. Date on this is around Dec 2014-Jan 2015

Enjoy having 4 legs again Elliot!!

10 years is a lifetime for most dogs. 10 years is just a bleep in time for love. Elliott's story has now come to an end. Unexpected, and very sudden, he leaves an enormous hole in our lives. He was so very smart, and had the most golden heart I have ever come across. He taught us so much about love, and about trust. He was so terrified of the world, yet to a select few he opened up his heart to us, and once he did, he never held back. I feel very honored to be the one who was gifted with his love, and privileged to spend these 10 years with him.

We will probably be posting some memories here over the next week or so, as we process his departure from us. To those of you who have been with us since that day in 2015 when a poor, feral dog was unlucky enough to be the victim of violence and to lose his leg because of it, and those who helped with support and, especially money, to make it happen that this little dog got a new lease on life, we had no idea what a journey it would be! We thank you from the bottom of our hearts! I hope that this page gets picked up in some memory archive and preserved for future generations as a wonderful story of the little dog that could, and the little dog that loved. We will keep this page for as long as we are alive (which could be quite a few more years!)

10 years ago today Elliot was shot. He disappeared and we searched everywhere, not knowing what had happened to him. Little did we know what amazing journey lay before us, a journey of love and trust and discovery!

I wonder if he remembers those early, dark days....

As of May 2, 2023 Elliott had reached 500 Followers.

One year later, Elliott has gone viral! He now has over 1,100 Followers! And we don't even have any adventures to post about! Well, not MUCH adventuring....we did stop at our favorite cemetery last week to poke around. But Elliott said it was too hot, Mom, and could we go back to that nice cold truck and hang out and get some water please, Mom?

Hard to believe you've been with us for 9 years! You don't act like an old dog, but you've got to be 10 or 11 years old by now. Elliott, my boy, is taking an easy afternoon on this rainy day, with his even older (14 later this year!) buddy Spirit. So glad we could give you such an awesome life!
