Calendar Girl Blog: Tully

My calendar dog advisory board got a bit smaller yesterday. Tully, a dear friend for over 13 years and a loyal Breast of Canada supporter passed away, in his home under his own steam, with his loving mother at his side.

I met Tully when he was the size of a medium sized roast chicken. His blond coat, although prolific in the shedding department, never gave a hint of his advancing years. But it did show off his love of mud which vexed his mother to no end.

As a world class swimmer, it gave me great pleasure to know that on the eve before Tully's death he enjoyed a refreshing dip in the river after a hearty home cooked meal.

I've always listed dogs in my calendar credits. Since my dog friends bring balance to my life it seems right to include them as part of the mechanism of being a publisher. Not always the best spellers and certainly no better than I with grammar, Dogs do know when it's time for a mind clearly walk, a rest and a bit of tail wagging affection.

Calendar Girl will miss Tully's big loopy grin and love. May heaven's cookie jar be open and full.
