Let me get back to introducing my animals. This beautiful old man is Izzy. My husband, David, and I got him from David’s dad back in 2014. He is a beautiful double merle mini australian shepherd. He’s roughly 13 years old, deaf, partially blind, and while he has had a decline in health, he still gets the energy to bark at the passersby on his favorite perch (I gave up painting that windowsill and can’t keep that window clean), roughhousing with his housemates, and going on short walks. We actually call him our cat dog because he just likes to cuddle on his own terms, loves his perch, and will try to make himself fit things he’s too big for just because “he can.” I recently found out he doesn’t like whipped cream when he refused a pupcup at a drink shop in Norman. He’s brought us so much love and joy over the years and I hold tight to the time I still have with him.
