This is my pup, Eleanor Roosevelt (Ellie for short). Now who could resist a face like this! We adopted her from a place called, "Strays Halfway House." She was on the loose in the Northwest suburbs. We picked her up at a PetSmart near Woodfield Mall in Schaumburg, IL. She'll be 3 yrs. old in Jan. 2007. If you put a treat in your hand, point a finger at her like a gun and say, "BANG!", she'll roll over and play dead. This can take as long as a minute. She dies a slow death. But anything for food! I look at her and wonder who could lose a dog like this and not find her. Their loss and our gain!
"All things bright and beautiful,All creatures great and small,All things wise and wonderful:The Lord God made them all.", Cecil F. Alexander, 1848

I love the picture of "Ellie Belly" and I love that name for her.
She looks sooo precious.
I totally agree with you about birthdays and NOT having to think about birthdays in heaven.
I was working at school today and one of the kids asked me my age and when I told them... they looked surprised and said "Wow.. that's OLD" .. I had to chuckle!
Kids - and animals .. gotta love 'em.
Have fun!
