This is my blog to write about alpaca stuff but tonight I must make an exception. Today I said goodby to my first French Bulldog, “Boomer”. He had been with me 13 1/2 years. I have joked with many that he was that parinoid son I always wanted. Now that he is gone I don’t have the words to explain what a joy he has been to me. I remember the first time I saw him sitting in an x-pen. His ears were erect and he was bouncing like a rabbit. I picked him up and from that moment on he was my boy. He has been a partner raising golden puppies, and has traveled with me to alpaca shows. He and I shared the ownership of a remote control car that we got for Christmas. I would drive it around the house while he would chase it. That was great fun until he caught it and then try and take it away from him. He would shake it and shake it until a tire would come off or the batteries would come flying out and then the care would have to go away for another day of play. Hard to imagine that a fifty plus year old woman and her dog could get so much fun out of playing with a remote control car, but we did.
This farm will not be the same without Boomer. He was the heart of the farm and tonight our hearts are broken.
