What
a lucky day it was back in August of 1988, when this stray Aussie
walked into my life. I had never even heard of an Australian Shepherd
and my "found sign" listed her as a mixed breed. I found her
a home at the end of our street but she knew something I didn't - that
somewhere it was written that we were meant to be together forever.
When she managed to get herself returned to me, I adopted her. A trip
to the vet revealed to me that she was a certain breed. We had twelve
wonderful years of true companionship and affection. With my husband
and me in our RV, she traveled from Florida to Newfoundland, from
California to Alaska, and all points between. Together we walked at
least 3500 miles. My husband joked that her legs used to be much
longer but that I walked them off. Her only desire was to be my side
and when she was, she was at peace. She was always and forever my
loyal, trusting and loving friend, by my side whenever possible. Her
recent death has been extremely traumatic and painful, but I cherish
her memory which will live in my heart forever. This is my tribute to
you, Fannie Mae, the best dog in the world.
