August 2026: Dixie Duncan

Dixie is a rescued dog. She was picked up to replace our previous dog. When she was just a few years old she started having seizures. Dr. Christy helped us to deal with that. Once we got her meds right she hasn’t had a seizure for at least 10 years. I was concerned that Dixie may not live long with her seizures but Dr. Christy assured us that Dixie can have a long and happy life. Dixie was my walking companion for many years normally walking at least 2 miles a day weather permitting. Now in her golden years we have trouble walking a block but she still gets out there most every day.  While she may not understand how a bed is supposed to work she always seems able to fall asleep. She was lost after my wife passed away but when it is Dixie’s time, some of her ashes will be buried over my wife.
