Kathryn Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Hi Whitney! I have photos of my now-gone dogs on my bedside table too! One even includes my DH... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also got one of those Kallax units from Ikea - not for Ruffy, but (selfishly) for me! Nice design, easy to assemble, and best of all, a bargain price. I justified buying furniture for my dog to see out the window by thinking it would make a handy mini-dresser for any guests that come. It really is a great piece; light, really easy to put together, and versatile. 1 Quote "as far as i am concerned cairns are the original spirit from which all terriers spring, and all terriers are cairns very deep down inside." pkcrossley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post _whits_ Posted October 15, 2016 Author Popular Post Share Posted October 15, 2016 I keep a physical photo album in my apartment and a digital photo album on my phone of my past dogs. It's nice to be able to remember the furry friends who've helped you make it through life. My favorite picture of my first terrier Freckles and my great grandma is attached. That picture of Autumn the Maltese was actually taken by Addie's favorite receptionist who has worked for my dad for my entire life. She's been close to all of my dogs and took Autumn out to her farm years ago and got that great picture of her on a John Deere tractor. I bought the bedding for a great price in the "off to college" section of Target a couple years back, even though I was certainly not off to college. It's my guest bedding/ nap time in the guest room (why is it that naps are better when they're not in your bed?) and its held up very well (no pilling and easy to wash) for what was meant to be for teenagers! Addie fell asleep in the sunset on her new perch today, which is all I could have hoped for. Thanks again for all of the suggestions! 10 Quote "as far as i am concerned cairns are the original spirit from which all terriers spring, and all terriers are cairns very deep down inside." pkcrossley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malcolm's Dad Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 You sure did good job fixing up a perch for Addie. She looks very comfortable. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_whits_ Posted October 16, 2016 Author Share Posted October 16, 2016 I love these pictures of our precious previous pets. How lucky we all were to share part of our lives with some extraordinary friends. 4 Quote "as far as i am concerned cairns are the original spirit from which all terriers spring, and all terriers are cairns very deep down inside." pkcrossley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Autumn & Lola Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Tomorrow I'll have to take a pic of my Mandy photos on my desk. (And judging from the other pics, I'll need to dust my desk first. ) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Autumn & Lola Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Whits, I can't decide who was cuter - Freckles or your great-grandma! Everyone's memorials to their pets are so lovely! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
