Remembering Tabitha No, she isn't a yorkie...she was a Basset that my parent bought when I was 7 years old. She grew up with me and I helped my mom when it came time to breeding and whelping her puppies.
I love basset puppies...they are precious with those big feet and long ears. Their bellowing is unique as well.
Tabitha defended me once by running off a German Shepherd that our gracious neighbor like to let roam the neighborhood. Anyway, she ran him to the property line and just stood there barking at him...it was too funny.
The only thing she ever killed was a rabbit that she somehow caught and left it as a gift on our back porch.
She was a beautiful gal with a beautiful heart. She lived for 11 years and we lost her one Sunday morning while dad was working in the back yard. Dad had her buried by the time I got home from church. It was one of the few times I ever saw him cry.
I miss you, Tabitha!
