Red Dirt Farm and Studio

Not the best of weeks.

It wouldn’t seem right if I didn’t share with you that our hearts are broken over the loss of our Betsy Beagle, she went to heaven on Monday.

I’m not going to tell you she was the greatest dog in the world, because she was not;  actually she was a pain in the ass from the very first day she adopted us until the last.  We can’t actually remember how long she has been with us, but at least 15 years, I would say.

 And we miss her horribly.

It breaks my heart every time I go into my office and look at my screen saver, seems every other photo is of Betsy.  Here are a few of my favorites I took in her last days with us.  Many of the photos she is with That Cat, Betsy wouldn’t get along with most of the other animals we had over the years, but she really loved That Cat and followed him everywhere.

Mr. Cottage pointed out that for the first time in the thirty years we have been together, we are dogless.

 It feels very lonely.
