Introducing Jimmy


Recommended Posts

When I lost my heart dog Frisby several months ago, I swore I couldn't possibly have another dog as my heart was broken. It was many weeks before I could think of Frisby without crying and I was so lonely at home with nobody to talk to or cuddle. So today I gave in and brought Jimmy home. He is a four and a half year old big black boy. He is a bounce and has been at home with me for a few hours now. I hope he will settle as he seems quite at home already. He ate his dinner with no problem.

 

Anyway here is Jimmy. It's not a brilliant photo, but I'm sure there will be many more to come

Awww! He looks so happy and carefree! Why was he a bounce?

The lady that had him for six months had something wrong with her foot and couldn't walk him. So she decided he would be better off with someone who could give the walks and attention he needs. She was pretty upset to part with him and he has been well looked after, so she probably did the right thing for him.

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

Holy smokes, your puppin' looks exactly like mine! He's very handsome and congratulations! He looks happy :ghplaybow

He does look just like your Coal, even down to the toes. Jimmy is about 80lbs, so he is a similar size too, but he does feel small after Frisby who was over 90lbs. He had made himself at home already, but I have a week off work to help him settle.

Oh my gosh, Jimmy is so adorable! What a happy face!

I know that adopting Dakota after Robin passed away helped my heart to heal. Hope Jimmy does the same for you.
