Miss Bess is my avatar, my friend. She has been a great comfort to me since my husband died five months ago. She is 10-1/2 now and is slowing down, just a teeny bit. She was spoiled by my husband who, of course, blamed that on to me. I know I will never be without a dog and maybe a cat, maybe. Bess is a Pointer/Lab (German Short Hair and Black Lab). She has the head of a lab (big) and body of a pointer. She sleeps on her back. She is getting grey/white around the gills now and it gives her the "dog of wisdom" look. I love her dearly and she took me under her "wing" when my husband died. She is my almost constant companion and I would be totally lost without the little (84 lb) bugger!!!!

Gotta love 'em! Edie
