Today is Frankie’s first birthday (not that we have cake or anything).
This video was taken last March, a week after bringing two-month-old Frankie into the house and clearly shows Charlie’s apprehension. Later, that orange squishy toy would become the “toy of truce”, forging a brief but playful friendship between Frankie and Charlie.
We sadly had to say goodbye to one of our labs this week. Charlie died Thursday night after a sudden onset of restlessness and frequent small seizures, likely caused by a brain tumor. She was 10 years 9 months.
As we sifted through the hundreds of pictures we have of her, we found a few short video clips taken on our digital camera. We’ll be sharing a few of them here on the blog as a tribute to her healthier days. Mike and I — and Roscoe and Frankie — miss her very much.
