A – Z Challenge. L is for Loulou

Loulou was our Dalmatian. We lost her on the 18^th of January. She was 14 years, 9 months old and it was her time. She was tired and she was done.

This is our last photo of her, a week before she died.

She was born on the 27^th of March 2000 along with her brother Alfie. 

 

She lived with her Mum, her brother and little Sandy. They had the best life and were all very much loved. 

All 4 of them liked to play in the Bluebell Woods but this shows Alfie and Loulou.  We are waiting for the blubells to come out as we are going here to scatter the ashes of all 4 of them.

Loulou full of life

As is the way of things, one by one they all became old and one after the other we lost them. Loulou was the last. She died very peacefully at home with us right there with her. We have been lucky as all 4 of them have died at home.

I still miss each and every one of them so much. It never gets any easier. People who have never had a dog as a part of their family will never understand that.
