My dear soul mate Bear developed DM in the late stage of her life at age 15 yrs old. Her attitude never wavered, she loved life, and her family and we loved her like a child. She really had the same personality as myself, I called her my soul mate from the day I brought her home. I miss her dearly, she was the best dog I ever had, and well mannered, and most of all happy. With this said I think she had a hand in us finding our new corgi, Olive, our 13 week, tri terror! Nothing like our beloved Bear but we love her just the same. But I see a lot of work ahead of us with this one. She's a wild child, fearless and loves a challenge. Oh boy!!
