Growing up in Forest Park, my Dad was the dog lover.
He had several, all outside dogs.
Beagles were his favorite.
I, of course, had a monkey named Jasper.
He ended up at Grant Park Zoo...
That's a whole 'nother story.
Daddy's dog Doby.
This is my dog Shelly. I got her while living in Hawaii.
Took her to Forest Park, then to Colorado where she passed.
This is Kaya. Born in Georgia and raised in Colorado.
Kaya with Charlie who was Shelly's son, also born in Hawaii.
Shelly and Charlie went to Forest Park, then to Colorado,
and back to Stockbridge, Georgia, where this photo was taken.
This is where Charlie passed. His passing was sudden and I took it pretty hard.
This is the result of grief...
Cassie and Coco.
Coco
Cassie
...and the man of the house PACO.
Forest Park, Colorado, Stockbridge, Eagles Landing.
We all live IN this house... with ...
THE BABY SITTER.
I too had a Sheltie named Shelly. Got her in Palmetto, took her to Alpharetta, Locust Grove and then Stockbridge where she passed away and is buried here where I have lived the last 11 years. I grew up in Forest Park and we drove by your home many times each Christmas. My husband worked for Claude for many years at his Forest Park and Union City stations.
