Scoop was her hero simply because he showed unconditional love. He died at the age of 13, and six years later she still misses him terribly. Because she does not have internet access, Sheila is entrusting me with telling her story and finding breeders in Rochester, NY. No dog will ever replace her beloved Scoop, but she believes that his spirit is watching her and that he will love his new brother or sister. |
So Sorry for your friends loss. Please tell her that Nothing can heal the heart better then a new Puppy love. She might consider a rescue as nothing is more grateful then a rescued dog.
