Sadly, my sister Susan had to put Tutu, her tiny Yorkie - seen with me in the above photo, taken a year or so ago - to sleep this past Thursday afternoon. Tutu, who was 14 years old, had been in failing health for a while now, and so thankfully, I think Susan was prepared for this to happen, although losing a pet is always hard. That is one of the many reasons why I never want to own a pet myself. Susan's other dog, Blackberry, is also 14 years old, but still seems to have lots of energy. When I take her for walks up in Fort Collins several times a week, it is more like a run, and afterwards, I am far more tired than Blackberry. I just hope and pray it stays that way for a long time to come.
