Sheila was an awesome robust little dog!
I believe dogs like Sheila are angels here to remind us of our true potential to give and receive unconditional love.

Thanks, Paul,for sharing your thoughts on Sheila. It was always evident that you enjoyed her as a part of your household. It’s intriguing how dogs manifest the interface between the human and animal realms.

I loved when you said her nose remained good - how we all smiled several years ago when I came to your house for a party and brought a cheesecake. We put it on a card table - yes, it was pretty close to the edge, but even still a challenge one would think for a pup so small to reach. BUT, we looked around to see Sheila standing straight and tall on her hind legs with her nose (and tongue) enjoying the cheescake. We were actually glad she found it - it showed us her nose still had plenty of life! God bless her and you too!

I remember the greetings we got from Sheila whenever we came for a visit….the excitement in her barking voice let us know how how welcomed we were and how glad she was at seeing us…so full of love and excitement. Also at bed time I remember her willingness to share the futon in the back room with me and how she fluffed up the blankets around me and kept me warm by cuddling up to me. I remember how Shanna and Sheila liked their breakfast of eggs. I would like to think that when we arrive in Heaven, we will see Shanna and Sheila enjoying those eggs together. I truly will be missing you Sheila as I miss Shanna.

Sheila always loved Block Party Day. Not only did the kids get to play in the street, so did the dogs! And on just that one day, there were many plates of food left right on the ground, just for her. My friend Ginny once gave me a coffee mug for my birthday. It says “Welcome Each New Day.” That was just what Sheila did and encouraged us to do too! I’ll always thank Sheila for that lesson.

Yes, she was more fun to dress up than were dolls, wasn’t she?

In her younger years she was even a fabulous runway model. She always managed to be in the spirit of things, remember? Though the fashion industry is a high stress industry full of cat fights, she always kept her opinions about the clothes to herself and never lashed out at the young fashion designers.
