Guinness now wears the ribbon that came with Dexter’s flowers from the vet and now has pride of place in our loungeroom. 💙🐾

As a thank you for helping and caring for them, my mum bought us this gorgeous little staffy today. As soon as I saw it I fell in love with it. It made me think of our beautiful Dexter though it is more like Ciara. Isn't he just the cutest?? 💙🐾

A bittersweet day. 15 years ago today our beautiful angel came into our lives & made herself completely at home when we adopted her at 3 years old! She gave us so much love, laughter & joy.

Ciara, I loved you then, I love you now & I will love you always. 💙🐾

In loving memory of our beautiful little fruit bat Dexter and his sissy Ciara. You may be gone but you are never ever forgotten. 💔🐾🌈

Today is a bitter-sweet day. While I have wanted to commemorate the memory of my beautiful Ciara, whose memory I felt was overshadowed last year after Dexter’s surgery, now this year two years on now shares the day with Dexter who gained his wings two years to the day after her. While she gained hers at 3pm on this day in 2021 Dexter gained his about 45 minutes earlier this afternoon.

Now on this day every year I can commemorate the memory of both my babies whom I love and miss every second of every day. And I grieve all over again for them both. But grief is the price we pay for love. 💔💙

To my poppet and my little fruit vat...I loved you then, I love you now and I'll love you always. 💙🐾



It's my first day in heaven,
And what a beautiful place,
You'll be glad to know,
There's a smile upon my face,
The moment I left you,
Two angels in white,
Carried me up here,
To heaven that night.

All those stories you hear ,
About rainbow bridge are true,
But you don't walk over it,
The angels carried me through,
There's a gate at the end,
Made of pearl,
It has got to be the biggest gate,
In the world!

Once I got in and started looking around,
You just won't believe all the things that I found!
The first place they took me,
Had to be the most fun,
A humongous field,
With miles to run!

Once I was tired the angels said,
We'll take you to your home,
But first we need to stop by this place
Full of tasty bones,
They told me to take one with me,
But one is all I need,
Because every good thing lasts forever,
Up in heaven you see,

They took me to my new house,
It took my breath away,
Most beautiful place I've ever seen,
With a huge yard to play,
They said come on lets go inside ,
And have a look around,
They took me to the bottom floor,
You won't believe what I found,

The bottom of my house is a window
And you won't believe the view,
See my house it sets right over yours,
So I can still keep an eye on you!
I was so worried about you,
When I went away,
Now I can watch you every second,
And know that you are okay!

I can't wait for that moment,
When we can walk around this place,
And I can cover you with puppy kisses,
On every inch of your face! ❤️❤️❤️
