  We love this sweet dog. We called him Fred. We helped to save him and are helping to sponsor him. He was rescued from a kill shelter awaiting imminent death. It moved us deeply and we are so glad he is safe. These drawings have been done with live. The first was at the kill shelter. The second is since his rescue. You can see more about Fantastic Fred here: https://pennypawsrescue.org.uk/2026/01/16/fantastic-fred/

 I like to illustrate my poems with simple pictures. It may take a long time, but eventually I get there. BELOVED DOG You are no longer here Yet you are everywhere Every millisecond of my life Contains multiple memories of you. Every blade of grass here was walked on or sniffed by you. Every path was taken by your faltering paws. Every space echoes you. Every thing I did, you were there too. How then can I go on without you? Yet how can I ever replace you? I cannot. And so you glisten in the morning light. Your bark echoes to me in unexpected moments You cuddle me ethereally at nightfall. You remain forever in my life. And always in my heart. I cannot let you go, Beloved little dog

OUR HOPE FOR THE NEW YEAR Whether it has been a good or bad year for you, we hope that the new year will bring new insights and new possibilities. We hope that you receive kindness from others. We hope that you find understanding in difficult situations. We hope that you find compassion in unexpected places. We hope that you find light in any bleak moments. We hope that you can always find peace that will lead you onto better things. May you never feel unheard, uncared for, mistreated or hurt and hopeless, especially if things are tough. We wish you the best of years ahead. Love, Linda and Greg  

  FOR ALL THE DOGS WHO NEED A HOME Who need to be loved, who would like a bone Who wish the new year brings them all The treats, the toys, the bouncy ball. The warmth of a cozy, comfy bed. A place to lay their weary heads And cuddles galore And a whole lot more We hope they find the perfect place A kind and loving friendly space With no more fear to fill their days Only safety now and a place to play. A Happy New Year to all PennyPaws dogs And to all the new families yet to be found. (”Fred” by the Artist LC)
