Today is a very special anniversary for Laura, a friend and reader of this blog.
Six months ago she lost her beloved Yorkshire Spike, “the greatest dog in the world”, as she said. Spike was the first dog she ever rescued.

Laura is a member of the Massachussets Animal Rights Coalition. She owns three other rescued Yorskhires, and six rescued cats.

She wrote a moving memorial for Spike, that is published at Spike’s Rainbow’s Residency, a virtual memorial home for pet.
Here is an extract from Spike’s memorial:

“Never in my life have I encountered a dog so human, and with such an expressive face as Spike’s. Every single emotion that a human can display on their face, so could Spike. He knew how to get whatever he wanted, whenever he wanted anything, and would not take no for an answer. Spike was definitely a one of a kind dog that put his tiny feet down, and demanded to be seen and heard whenever he felt it would get him what he wanted.”
