RIP our Beautiful Beattie Girl

our Beautiful Beattie Girl left us tonight ..she fought so bravely to stay with us but the wear and tare of old age had finally caught up with this gentle beautiful lady who was our constant companion for over 12 years ..{she came to live with us from NSW when she was two years old and heavily pregnant with her 9 puppies...Her family David and Chelsea and the girls moved to live in the Unites Sates of America for 4 years and could not take her with them ..so she flew down to Tasmania to live with us ..we are so glad she did.....}

This is just a few photos of you life's timeline...

You were a great mum but had to put up with a lot from those 9 very hungry puppies which you raised to beautiful healthy little pups ..they all went to great homes all over the state of Tasmania

 here you are with that beautiful little family of newborn puppies ..they were gorgeous and stole our hearts ...

 this little lady spent a lot of time with you and if she ate it ..then so did you Beattie ...

 You often had to move over in your basket to let this little lady get in with you and you didnt mind one little bit

 and left over toast was always on the menu when this little man came to stay at Nanna and Poppy's house

 You always became the watch dog when your little people were around ..You ADORED THE KIDS 

 But the beach was where you were the happiest ..and this little lady loved to run in the water with you....

 but your true love was "Himself" ..you never was far from his side and went everywhere in the old ute with him...

 always in the water swimming and playing..we could almost swear you were smiling when you were in the water....

 You have gone to be with Casey now ....I guess that you two girls will be playing and swimming free of pain in that place that all much loved pets go when they have to leave their homes here on earth ....

 of course there are those four legged friends who are going to miss you too... 

 we will miss that huffing and puffing and that smile ...

 But i wont miss all that fur coat you used to shed on my floor though ...(maybe i will because it means that you are not here any more ...)

 you loved a good roll and you could almost sing while you did it ....

 not far from your master's legs ... and always looking for him when he was out of sight...and later in your life when you no longer could hear ...your nose was always in the air smelling for his scent....

{ when you cant swim to have a bath ..the wheel barrow is next best thing..but you  didn't really like it ..can you tell?...}

Oh how we miss you already our beautiful girl...we love you very much and we know you loved us ....Rest in Peace with no more pain....we will forever remember your unconditional love for us all....
