Sophie, originally uploaded by back to basic.

This is the dog that I grew up with. She is thirteen and a half (that's sixty seven in human years!) and she is quite possibly the best dog on earth. I captured this when I was feeding her this morning and thought that she looked so peaceful. Despite her age she is unusually playful and that's what I love about her. It is going to be a sad, sad day when she is gone but for now this image sums up everything about her. She is a joy and has made a big impact in my life, that's pretty amazing considering she's a dog.
