This April 1st marks Lexi's 10th birthday! I can't believe this girl has been with me for 10 years. She is absolutely, hands down, no exceptions....THE BEST DOG! She never barks unless there's someone at the door. She never chews or runs away. She's never snapped at either of the boys, no matter how many times they've fallen on top of her, stepped on her, used her as a personal stepstool, or used her as a drum for their entertainment.
She loves to be wherever we are, and loves to follow the boys as they drive around in their car. If I sit anywhere, she's never more than a foot away, and she never tires of following room to room so that she can be near me. She's traveled to New York and lived there with Eric and I for a year when we got married, she's been through hell and back on an airplane in the cargo pit. I still remember picking her up in Dallas after our flight from New York and she had no voice because the meds we gave her to calm her down hadn't worked and she spent the entire flight crying. :(
As old as she is now, if we go in the backyard, she runs straight for a ball or a frisbee for us to throw for her. And she'll fetch until she literally collapses. I have never had a better dog and I don't know what I'll do when she's gone, but for now, I know she's living her life to the fullest and loving her family unconditionally!
Love you Bun! Here's to 10 more with you. :)
