"Love at first sight!!!๐Ÿ’–"

This was Sasha at eight weeks old, when we first brought her home on February 2, 2002. I remember Super Bowl XXXVI was on Sunday (Patriots defeated my home team the Rams 20โ€“17 ), and I let my 10-year-old daughter stay home on Monday to bond (also part of the healing process, as our previous dog was hit by a car and killed on Christmas Eve of 2001).

"Fast forward sixteen years..."

My adorable Cocker Spaniel, Sasha, just turned 16 years old at end of November! Where has the time gone?!

Here's my previous post about Sasha's 16 birthday

She's the sweetest, most lovable dog ever and we love her so much! ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’•

I just got back from checking out your blog๐Ÿ’ฏ
Hope you're feeling better today. Looks as though you had a really fun day at your daughter's school. Thank you for the compliment about Sasha. She's a real sweetheart! So are you๐Ÿ’•

That's my faithful companion! Do you have any pets, Linda? I don't remember seeing any. Thank you for the compliment. I just have her a bath a few hours ago so she's nice and tidy for Christmas. Speaking of which, Merry Christmas early to you! @kerlund74 โค๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿฅ

I have two cats. A male and a female. The male cat behaves like a dog, sits in the knee and are a social creature, the female is really shy and "catlike".
Nice to get clean and prepared for Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you as well! โค

I like cat-dogs, the kind that are friendly. My daughter just adopted two cats from the shelter to go with her two dogs. Yes, she's another animal lover. Thanks for the well wishes!

She is adorable! I like Cocker Spaniel, but couldn't afford one..maybe one day in the future :-)

Capone would love a buddy!!!โค
If you're not set on getting dog when it's a puppy, there are rescue groups for about every breed of dog, even cockers. Sadly, I've seen some at the animal shelter too. Happy Thursday! @icybc

He would definitely wants a buddy, but my pocket is empty...The medical expenses for them would bankrupt me :-)

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

That's the truth! And cockers are prone to ear and eye problems
