Faithful companion

 Little Elvis is thirteen years old now.  He is my constant companion.  He can hear a little and see a little...he is elderly and sleeps a lot so we get along just fine. 

He moves when I move...his nose must still be pretty good because I can rarely sneak away.  In the night time if I get up to go to the bathroom he follows me and then goes to get a drink of water and is ready to settle back down again when I return.  



He and Sadie get along mostly, she is very jealous of him and will nose him out of the way.  He does run and bark with her outside. 

I will miss him when we go back to the woods.

    You and Little Elvis have shared a lot of good times over the years. He’s a handsome collie.

    Little Elvis is definitely getting to be a senior but he seems to still enjoy his life. You'll miss each other when you go back home.

    Little Elvis will miss you too. Maybe you could "borrow" him?

    I have followed you long enough to remember when he was a pup. We just aren't going to get any more dogs. He will miss you a lot.

    I'm glad you've had such good companions in these two dogs while you've been wintering at Jen's beautiful house. I'm sure they will miss you too.

    Why am I crying? Little Elvis seems like such a sweet, sweet puppy. Why can't they live as long as we do? As much as we love our little Zoey, we still miss our Chloe baby desperately.
    Little Elvis will miss you when you go home and you will miss him too.
    Blessings and hugs,
    Betsy

    He is such a beautiful little dog. He will miss you too. Maybe a visit with Grammy and Grandpa in the future?

    They never have the amount of time we want them to have. Treasure the moments.
