A heart takes a little while to heal sometimes.

We were blessed to have had two wonderful Golden Retrievers in our family. Strawberry, who we were grateful to have in our lives for 17 years and Shortcake (her biological sister) who was born two years later and lived to be 15.  Both of these wonder-dogs filled our lives and our home with many four-footed excursions, most of which involved our back-yard pond.  It was of no great surprise to our family that in both of their passings we found them there at the pond…one final resting in their “favorite spot.”

Three years passed before we were ready to open our hearts again & we began our quest to find our newest four-footed family friend.  Little did we know we were about to meet Helen, The Best Golden Retriever in the Universe!  And that we’d be lucky enough to have her fill up our days with light and laughter and love.

In my newest blogging 101 assignment, as I practice with learning ‘widgets,” I hope you find yourself viewing the picture gallery posted of Helen.  No doubt, you too will find her to be The Best Golden Retriever in the Universe!  (No cape necessary.)

Hugs n’ (puppy) Blessings!
