Pupdate: I’m still here
Hello, my friends. I know it’s been a while since I’ve written. I haven’t really felt all that much like blogging since I said goodbye to Bella. (Some days, I haven’t felt like doing much… Pupdate: I’m still here
The unbearable absence of Bella
This post is one I can’t believe I have to write. Today, our family said goodbye to Bella. We kissed this sweet face farewell, and life will never be the same. We have been managing… The unbearable absence of Bella

Caption this dog: Journey to the center of the couch
Bella’s never been one to spend hours snuggling with her humans. However, she used to enjoy hopping up on the couch, planting herself between her people, and falling asleep. We’d often find her on the… Caption this dog: Journey to the center of the couch
