My Earl (half dachshund, the rest a melange of German and English Shepherd and Labrador Retriever), adopted at age 7, approves of this message.

Obviously have to respond with the best picture of my late Helen the Hound. I let her out onto the driveway while I was shoveling because she had cabin fever, and I thought the snow was too deep for her to attempt an escape.

Think of my low rider Simon, gone two years, every day. Adopted age 10 (or more), died age 17 (or more).
