Goodbye to a dear friend...

We awoke this morning to receive a very sad email from our good pal Leslie who has been a wonderful customer and friend of Lucky Fiona for some time now.
Yoshi the Basset Hound seen here as Mr. July on our Friends of Fiona 2009 Calendar crossed the bridge this morning to go to doggie heaven. We are so sorry for this tremendous loss and send our heartfelt condolences to Leslie and Zac and her 7 other dogs who are missing their old pal Yoshi. Leslie is the type of person we admire here at Lucky Fiona. She helps animals in need unselfishly and we know Yoshi was a very lucky dog to have all the years he did with such a warm hearted and loving guardian.
In Yoshi's name Lucky Fiona is making a donation to Basset Hound Rescue of Georgia Inc. www.bhrg.org We know this is a group that Yoshi supported at last year's Basset Bash and we hope to help another basset in need with a contribution in his honor. We ask our friends to keep positive thoughts flowing to Leslie and her family today as they reflect on the wonderful life that Yoshi had with them. He will be missed here on earth but doggie heaven has a wonderful long eared addition to the pack and we know he is in a place where he is young again and running and baying and howling with the best of them.
