My pawfriend, Essex, was called to Heaven

It is with great sadness that I share the news of the passing of my pawfriend Essex from Key West.  She was my first collie friend in Key West and she always made me and my human laugh.  You see, she would run back and forth at the dog park as if on patrol.  She made sure no scooters, golf carts, skate boards, bikes, and loud trucks came into the park.  Base regulars knew her and those who rode/drove one of the mentioned would get her reved up.  I am glad mom took me to Key West a couple of years ago.  With my age and failing health, I will see Essex, Deacon (Essex brother) and my sister Lady II soon.  With the way Essex guarded the dog park, I know she is guarding the the gates of heaven and I am glad she liked me :)

Group pictures of Me, Deacon, Essex and Lady II.  Maybe God can take a group picture of us after I cross over and I can send it to my mom and Joe (Deacon and Essex dad)

RIP Deacon, Lady II and Essex.  Save me a soft cloud near a big bowl of ice cubes!
Love you always,
Lady (I)

Lady Update

Very proud of Lady.  Yesterday was the first day in months that she attempted to run and play with our human and me.  Today she went on a long walk with me and mom (long for her, short for us).  Mom got bad news last Friday when taking Lady to get weighed.  Lady had lost a pound instead of gaining.  She is down to 58 lbs now, but with this new energy and another new diet, we are hopeful that this Friday's weigh in will be good news.  Paws crossed!
