Today marks one year since we said goodbye to Loulou. We still miss her very much (especially mdw and Odin). I was remembering last night her particular affinity for providing a special Loulou moisturizer to the lower legs as I would get ready in the morning. She would endlessly lick the lotion off of my legs the moment I stepped out of the shower. She even applied this technique to my face while I was still sleeping in bed. I miss her sloppy kisses. Those unique kisses were immortalized in the following poem excerpt written by a friend for me and Loulou:
A Girl and Her Dog
The lips I once considered kissing
A canine gives a lusty licking,
Which of me it must require
A second thought on my desire.
This girl and dog like two sisters
Sharing secrets, sharing whimpers,
Allowed to share their own affection
Has forced me into new directions.
For in kissing her I'd come to close
To whiskers, ears, and furry coat.
Thank heavens for whiskers, ears, and furry coats... xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo to loulou!

Amen. I was just looking back at some of the things we did in Sept. 2006 and I, too, was reminded of her passing.
Sweet pup. Perhaps I'll make some peanut butter - hershey's kisses cookies in her honor.
Be well sweet LouLou.
I have been thinking recently of Oreo as well. I do like the poem. Dogs are wonderful and heaven should be full of them.
