their owner died and I was going to foster them but ended up keeping them.🐶 🐶 I loved those dogs so much. 💕 They didn't have hip or spine problems like so many do and lived to be quite old. Unfortunately they ended up developing diabetes and both died the same year one at the beginning and the other at the end of the year. I still miss them. 😢
