She had a great weekend. She had tortellini for breakfast and cleaned her bowl this morning. She was enjoying glorious warm sunshine today at lunch time. Something went in her neck. I had promised her no more pain ever. I have kept my word.
I know she was everybody's dog. She loved to tell stories and make people laugh. I can't bear that her death will make so many so sad. Please, please celebrate her long, generous life.
Please think of her and smile.
hug your hounds
Many thanks to Laurie Erickson, Tim Caro, Steve Surfman, Linda Solano, and Susan Kirkham for the photos.

ReplyDeleteMy tears flow for Mama but more so for you and Bill. She was such a big part of your lives. Mama had such an incredible long and adventurous life that practically every dog could only dream of. I will miss watching her zoomies and lounging around with her clan. I’m happy that she got to do her last road trip in the motor home and saw many of her long time friends. I’m so sorry for your loss. I thank you for sharing her with all of us.
ReplyDeleteOh Patience, I'm so sorry to hear about Mama Pajama. Thank you for sharing her with so much of the world so she could touch so many hearts. Mama PJ and Fat Charlie will always have a place in our hearts.

She will always be inspirational to everyone who loves dogs, especially whippets. What a really beautiful little girl she was, inside and out!
ReplyDeleteRun free Mama Pajama, as always your human did the best for you and no little whippet can ask for more from the ones she loved.
