This is my first post. It’s hard for me, even now, to talk about Artie. He passed away 09/19/2022 at the age of 16 from cancer. I adopted him when he was 2. He was my heart dog and there won’t be another like him. I adopted him sight unseen from someone taking him to a shelter in Tennessee. I live in Georgia, my daughter is in Tennessee and called me to tell me he needed a home. So I drove 8 hours round trip to get him. He want the best dog ever and the best friend I’ve ever had. I adopted 4 other dogs too. One passed away in 2017. She was a hospise adoption but lasted 3 years. The others I still have. One is almost 15 and is blind and fighting hepatitis. One is almost 12 and dying of cancer and heart failure and my baby is almost 7 and wild! I still grieve Artie every day and am pre-grieving his sister Abby. I read the other day you have your heart dog, which was Art for me, and then you have your soul dog, who is sent to help you recover from the loss of your heart dog. AJ is my soul dog. The sweetest little guy and my shadow. Here are pictures of Artie (the hairless dog) and Abby (my Yorkie). View
