Pumpkin

This is a picture of a puppy of Diesel and Ada's. Pumpkin.  Well.  She wasn't a puppy anymore in the photo.  I can see both Ada Monroe and Diesel in her face.  It's so strange.

I believe she was out of out first litter.  I called her "Little Ada" because she was the same brindle as her momma.  No one bought her.  I wanted to keep her.  Chris had a customer,  Shel, who he talked into buying her.  Shel lives in Alabama.  

Pumpkin developed cancer a few years ago and she and Shel fought it for a long time.  It's been at least a year ago that Shel had to put her down. She still misses Pumpkin.  Always will.   Pumpkin was probably the nicest pups ever of Diesel and Ada. I had wanted to keep her but so glad Shel had her for the time she did.  They were perfect for each other.  I think everyone has a once in a lifetime kinda dogs.  I have a feeling Pumpkin was that for Shel.  And not sure how to say this but Shel was a once in a lifetime owner for Pumpkin.  In the sense that Pumpkin was blessed with Shel as her mommy and didn't have to bounce around different owners till she found that one perfect owner.   Shel......
