Virginia Kaylie is such a noisy Nellie! Every time I stop while driving, she pops up to see what’s going on!

After making a few people smile earlier today, I come home to my pint size powerhouse, Virginia Kaylie. Practically Perfect in every way.

It was Virginia Kaylie’s turn to do the neighborhood watch this afternoon. She had everything under control, Folks. Nothing to see here! Keep moving! Lol!

Yep … It’s another darn picture of Virginia Kaylie on this glorious day!
UPDATE: My sweet girl, Virginia Kaylie passed away from complications of heart failure and collapse trachea on 3/16/2020. Thank you for fun, laughter and snuggles. I miss you to the moon and back.
As many of you might know, my Mom is a huge animal lover and thrives on rescuing any animal in need. On August 4, 2017, my Mom received a text from one of her girls about a Craigslist ad. It said Re-homing a Senior Chihuahua, (21 years old). I was shaking my head and, with a firm paw, said nope, nope, nope. I knew in my heart that I had nothing to worry about because she repeatedly told my Dad that it was so much easier with one baby. Plus, she doesn’t normally respond to those ads. I did watch her forward an email to a small dog rescue but then, I saw it. The look and knew that she was taken in by the picture and the story.
Mind you, Craigslist can be a very scary place for animals and humans. With that said, my Mom responded to the ad via text and email. The dog owner responded quickly and the conversation began. I was apprehensive and scare for my Mom but, after each bit of information came to light and verified to be true (internet is a great tool, btw), I knew that my Mom had opened her heart again. I was doomed to have another permanent roommate.
See, this is the one time that I think Craigslist did a good thing. My Mom was able to convince the dog owner that she was the best match for her dog. The dog owner, who was rehoming her daughter’s dog who passed away four years ago, didn’t have enough time to properly care for her and felt at ease that my Mom was the best match. To this day, we stay connected with the former owner and share her dog’s new life.
So, please welcome the newest addition to my family, Virginia Kaylie.
