I am updating my Weekly Video/Photo portion of my blog, due to the devastating loss of our Shadow. The plan will still be to still display a video or photo, usually highlighting an Adventure, while I might also sneak in some that are humorous, adorable, or just other fun dog moments. However, I will be concentrating future posts on Shadow, as we grieve his loss.
If you have followed my blog from the beginning you will know that I adopted Shadow as a puppy, and about a year later adopted Buster as a puppy. We had many wonderful years together before experiencing the devastating loss of Buster at just seven. It took a long time for our hearts to heal, but almost a year later we welcomed little Wilma into our world. As you may know we were devastated to loose Shadow on April 3, 2020. He was 12, and thankfully living a long and pain free life! I will use this section as a therapeutic remembrance of our Shadow, sharing many spectacular Adventures and moments.
Today’s feature is an adorable video of Shadow at one of our favorite local park, Great Brook State Park. We have been to this park hundreds of times, and on the bridge you will see featured in this video. Although Shadow was a nervous puppy, but became quite confident over the years. However he has was not always a fan of bridges, really quite understandable as they have a tendency to be wobbly, and not consistently stable for his footing. On this day Shadow was completely thrown off by the snow, and had no interest in crossing the bridge that we had regularly traversed previously. I helped him get started and he slowly made it across, before being thrilled to arrive at the end. I love this video, it is just so sweet. Hope it brings a smile to your face as well.
Precious! It’s so clear that he’s saying, oh, I don’t know about this . . .

Very cute. Ultimately he trusted you and was able to overcome his instinctual wariness about this. He was one well-loved dog.
