Goldie Girl and some memories

I am linking up with Pet Pride for the first time with this Goldie post. Please visit Bozo's blog and Pet Pride
I chose my Goldie Girl to be the star of my Camera Critters this week. She is so cute when she gives me her little happy growl. The one thing she loves to do is to go for walks. These are pic's of Goldie Girl at different times of the year.

She loves to swim and fetch sticks

 

She love to rub her face in the snow

I often think of and miss our old dogs... so in memory of Maui, Sunshine and Daisy.. Maui was a 125 lb chocolate lab..a big boy and one of Sunshine's puppies.

Sunshine.. was our first dog.  A yellow lab and very spoiled. Mike never had a dog growing up so Sunshine was his first dog. Needless to say I turned Mike into a dog lover too.

Daisy a Golden Retriever was our second dog.. great company for Sunshine and a very special dog.  One of my favorite memories of Daisy was when Sunshine had a litter of puppies Daisy went into the puppy box and laid down and tried to feed them. She was such a loving dog. Sometimes I would take Daisy to visit my mother who at the time was in a wheelchair..Diabetes had really done a number on her health. Daisy would climb on my mother who was sitting in her chair and give her a hug.. her paws would be hanging over my mothers shoulders.  It was a sight to see because Daisy is not a lap dog as you can see in the photo below. She is a big dog.  But, my mother just loved the attention and was a  dog lover like me.

Daisy had one litter of puppies and Sunshine had two litters. We had so much fun with these puppies and it was so hard  letting each one of them go. Some puppies were given to my friends and family, it was nice because we were able to visit with them. When the dogs were older we turned the puppy room into a nursery for my son. When the room was ready for Brian with new carpet and decorations and the crib, I was amazed to see Daisy go into the room and lay under the crib. She was getting ready for Brian too.

The three together..Sunshine, Daisy and Maui.  

Daisy, Maui, Sunshine and Sierra.. Sierra was one of Daisy's pups and was given to my father.
