Shelby passed away suddenly this morning while outside in the backyard. We are not sure what happened to her but found her laying there lifeless. She came to us at 11 years old as a senior girl passed on from one family to another and from what little we know, her life wasn't great. She was a funny girl and would not show a lot of emotion and only on occasion coming to us for a pat on the head or ear scritches. She outlived both our boys who passed away much younger and no matter what happened to her, she just kept on going and seemed like she was going to live forever.

 

Her passing is sudden but also we understand at almost 14, anything can happen and life can change quickly. You have earned your wings little girl, fly free and run to Charlie and Jack who will be waiting for you.

I'm so sorry you lost Shelby so suddenly. It was wonderful of you to adopt her at 11 and give her a loving home for her last years. Godspeed Shelby.
