The FReeper pet for this household (which also includes Freeper L8Pilot) is a 5-month old blonde cocker spaniel named Shaylee. "Shaylee" is Celtic and means "fairy princess of the field" -- and she lives up to her name - she rules!
In her short 5 months she has taught herself to play fetch...only in HER game, she throws the ball and YOU fetch it. As my 4 year old grandson said, "I have never seen a dog do that!"
My best dog ever was a black cocker named O'Malley (all my animals have Irish names). He died 7 years ago and I couldn't bring myself to get attached to another animal and I couldn't replace my Malley anyway. But little Shaylee has brought a lot of fun and love. I'm very thankful we found each other!
What a sweet story....Our dutchess has been gone over 15 years...the "pain" is long gone...but when we look at the sky and see a particular cloud formation...we can't help but smile and see her "waiting there at rainbow bridge".
Gizmo may have to take a trip to your house sometime to meet Shaylee (wink!)
