Pet-Peeves: Baths ... thunder and lightening
Favorite Toy: no favorite. She likes the squeaker of any stuff. She rarely plays now since she is a senior.
Favorite Food: Any food including pickles and olives!!! But table scraps are a rare treat; regular meal consists of Chicken Soup for the Dog Lovers Soul Senior Dog -- half a can of soft kind and 1 cup of the dry kind.
Favorite Walk: She is no spring chicken anymore ... just does a little runnin in the backyard now
Best Tricks: Play dead .. u make a gun out of your fingers and say Bang and she barks then plays dead! Also speak and rollover
Arrival Story: Prior to hubby and I getting married, all I talked about was getting a dog once we were married and in our own place (we were both active duty at the time with me living on a ship and he was living in barracks) so the day we got married, I got a cash gift from my grandmother for our wedding gift and my first thot was can pay some bills!! Hubby was like, we can get you your dog now ... of course the bills went flying out the window!! Since we married on July 4th, the pet store was closed so the next day, we found and purchased Reba ... our first fuzzy kid (aka Fid)!!
Bio: She is too smart for her own good! That fid popped a lid off of a tupperware bowl without damaging the bowl or lid to get to some candy. She also manage to tip off the lid of a butter dish that was up on the kitchen counter (we figured she tipped back a chair, jumped up on the kitchen table, crossed the kitchen table to a microwave table, and jumped up on the counter from there). She is also our Trash Queen! We even have her guilty on tape!! Little stinker didn't even let us get out of the apartment building we were living in at the time before she was in the trashcan!! LOL

Hey my beautiful girl. I am sorry I have not written so religiously on your web page as I did with Chyanne after you passed away. It just has been sooo hard to visit your page without falling apart. Even now I sit here with tears falling down, unable to see what I am typing. I know you know I love you dearly. Each time a sheltie that looks like you comes in through the doors at work, it just breaks my heart but also brings me joy cause all the memories of you come flooding to the surface. I just wanted to stop by and write my thoughts about you. I do dearly miss you. Daddy comes home to stay for a short time here in the next couple weeks and that is when he will feel the emptiness of you being gone. He was "the lucky one" in being gone when you passed away. But now he comes home to only your memory so maybe I am the lucky one after all. I was here still making memories with you before you left us. Daddy insisted that you sit beside his side of the bed though when you returned so there you sit. I don't have any toys though to sit with your tin. You no longer played with toys like Chy Chy was doing before she got sick and passed away. I did keep your collar and it is around your tin. I need to pick a really pretty picture to keep with it though. You were such a beautiful girl. Even with all the beautiful Shelties that come in the office, you were still the prettiest one I have ever seen. I saw one that almost looked exactly like you ... same short fur with the same colors except your white "bib" was alot larger than his. He was even the same size (weight and height!) as you. It was pretty sad for mommy. She had to look twice. It was like seeing a ghost! Speaking of ghosts, I think you come visit us through your brother and sisters. Maggie was never afraid of lightening and thunder like you were but since your passing, she has developed a fright of them. And Skylar is a constant barker when she plays like you used to do (except you considered your barking to be actually playing!! LOL). I see alot of your attributes in your brothers and sisters.
Mommy just wanted to let you know that you aren't forgotten, it is just hard to look at your page still without my heart totally breaking. I love you Reba. You were my first furbaby as daddy's forever girl. So you meant alot to the both of us. We wanted you so badly, we went and got you the very day after we got married cause we couldn't wait! We are looking forward to seeing you just as much at the bridge when mommy and daddy's time comes.
Mama has not forgotten you. It has been very hard to come and visit your page but felt the need to add a diary to your page to let you know I miss your sheltie bark and your fuzzy face. Everytime mommy sees a sheltie at work you run through her mind. And her heart then aches. I hope Chyanne has found you and the two of you are having a good time at the bridge.
I love you "little girl". You were our first "fid" and our first love.
The Chorus' of this song by LeAnn Rimes speaks volumes of how I feel about your loss Reebie Baby. I miss you my little girl.
Got a date a week from Friday with a preacher's son
Everybody says he's crazy
I'll have to see
I finally moved to Jackson when the summer came
I won't have to pay that boy to rake my leaves
I'm probably going on and on
It seems I'm doing more of that these days
(Chorus 1)
I probably wouldn't be this way
I probably wouldn't hurt so bad
I never pictured every minute without you in it
Oh you left so fast
Sometimes I see you standing there
Sometimes it's like I'm losing touch
Sometimes I feel that I'm so lucky to have had the chance to love this much
God gave me a moment's grace
Cause if I'd never seen your face
I probably wouldn't be this way
Mama says that I just shouldn't speak to you
Susan says that I should just move on
You oughta see the way these people look at me
When they see me round here talking to this stone
Everybody thinks I've lost my mind
But I just take it day by day
(Chorus 2)
I probably wouldn't be this way
I probably wouldn't hurt so bad
I never pictured every minute without you in it
Oh you left so fast
Sometimes I see you standing there
Sometimes I feel an angel's touch
Sometimes I feel that I'm so lucky to have had the chance to love this much
God gave me a moment's grace
Cause if I'd never seen your face
I probably wouldn't be this way
I probably wouldn't be this way
Got a date a week from Friday with a preacher's son
Everybody says I'm crazy
Guess I'll have to see
