Two days ago marked one year of Nova's death. It is amazing how time flies. I still miss my Nova-dog, but I was thinking about how hard her final 3 months of life were for me and for her. I realized on that day, that if I hadn't lost her, I wouldn't have gotten Miss Lulu.
Lulu and Nova are such different dogs. The things I worried about with Nova, don't even cross my mind when it comes to Lu. But the things I miss most about Nova are traits, Lulu does not possess (though she is getting better about some of the things).
While I love Lulu, it is a different love than I had for Nova. But either way I will be keeping Ms Lulu, because she is ridiculous and makes me laugh. Plus, I love having a fuzzy running companion and a dog to clean up while I cook.
And as always, Pie is the favorite pet. (This is mostly a jest.)
