Hello K9-Kingdom...it breaks my heart to say that we had to say goodbye to our sweetest, bestest girl on Monday. Kelly was pure joy and happiness. She was part of my entire life in Rochester...a part of nearly all of my memories with my stepkids, and it is hard to think about life without her. I am so grateful that she gave birth to 9 beautiful puppies in 2017, and we still have our other best girl, KJ (aka Kelly Jr.), from that litter. Kelly was diagnosed with Cushings disease last year. She had been declining slowly, but the decline accelerated over the last 2 weeks and we couldn't let her go on suffering. I don't expect you to watch the whole video... I really created it for my own catharsis... but the end is best...I don't know how her smile couldn't make you smile. Rest well my sweet girl. I hope you catch all of those pesky squirrels in heaven.
