IN THE BEGINNING …

By Shirley Carolan, ATM-G

My name is Krissy and I am writing this post from “Doggie Heaven.” I am a pure bred, 12 pound, black and white Shih-Tzu who was brought here to California from Texas. My first owners were a lovely young couple who lived in an upstairs apartment in Vista. I shared this space with another little dog. Things were OK until the new baby arrived. My young mistress found she could not handle all three of us in this small space. Hence, at age two I was put up for adoption.

Don’t you know I lucked out. My next caretaker, Shirley, had just lost her little male, Pug-Terrier, Jake. She had no intention of getting another dog so soon after Jakey passing. After all, it not even been a week since his passing.

However, God works in mysterious ways. Shirley came, saw me, and took me home with her! That was 10 wonderful years ago.

All my love, Krissy-Pooh!
