This is Belle. Belle is a mixed-breed dog, probably part Lab, part hound and who knows what else. We think that Belle is about 17-years-old. She has has belonged to our daughter Elysa since she came home, a fuzzy, bouncing puppy with endless energy. As a pup, she would fly through the air in a beautiful arc, paws out, to pounce on rats in the yard, which she would dispatch with extreme prejudice. She was part ballerina, part wolf.

Old dogs and children…
