I am saddened to have to report that Robinson is taking Zoe's death very well indeed.
He has been downright perky, and seems more relaxed than he's been for a while.
Zoe was a darling, but she could be quite unpleasant to Robinson. As a friend of mine said, "They don't call them 'bitches' for nothing!"
Robinson is a sweet, unassuming, gentlemanly dog, and couldn't stand up to her. I think he's glad she's gone.
And he's been very attentive to me, as only a sweet dog very closely bonded to his person can be when his person is distressed. As I have been. I'd forgotten just how effing painful grief can be.
Zoe may have been a bitch, but I do miss her.
But Robinson and Tabitha are my creature comforts.
And you! Thank you for all the messages of condolence. They really mean a lot.
