Hi @tyme,

you are so right, she just really did have a lasting impact. I felt we had a special bond, I just hope she feels the same. It was special for me. I hope it wasn’t just passing time for her. Yes that was her quote, so maybe she isn’t looking back at our time as anything. But if the feeling is embedded in me, she could possibly feel the same way.

Ruby is okay ish lol. Beautiful girl. They are a smart breed of dog. Paris got a treat for going outside to the toilet. That worked. I now sometimes just give her a treat for going anyway, but I am soft. When she sleeps at my place and needs to go she gently licks my face. Then i know she needs to go out. But not before she rolls over for a tummy rub.  Running down the street isn’t good. If she starts to maybe hold out a treat and she will think, hmm maybe I will stay. Hope you are going well with everything.

I think it is time I get moving to achieve my destiny. Maybe like you said, in big picture of forever a few years isn’t anything.
