OK, animal lovers, this one from The Associated Press will break — or warm — your heart. Talk about loyalty ... more proof that dogs are man's best friend.
GREELEY, Colo. — A dog stood guard over her owner’s body for up to six weeks after the man committed suicide on the remote northeastern Colorado plains, authorities said. The body of Jake Baysinger, 25, of La Salle was found Sunday on the Pawnee National Grasslands about 75 miles northeast of Denver. Cash, his German shepherd, was found beside him, thin and dehydrated but still alive. The dog had apparently survived by eating mice and rabbits, authorities said. The Weld County coroner ruled Baysinger’s death a suicide. The cause of death wasn’t immediately determined but authorities found a gun nearby, the coroner’s office said Tuesday. “At least we know it’s over now,” said Baysinger’s wife, Sara. “We’d been looking for my husband for six weeks, and this isn’t how we wanted it to end. At least we can close this.” Baysinger was reported missing June 28. An extensive search failed to locate him, but Kip Konig, a rancher, saw the dog last weekend, went to investigate and discovered Baysinger’s body and his pickup. He said Cash kept running back to the pickup and jumping into the front seat. “I got the sense she was trying to tell me where her master was,” Konig said. Cash was reunited Monday with Sara Baysinger and her 2-year-old son, Lane. She said her little boy is “very close to that dog” and happy to see her again. Investigators said the dog probably kept coyotes away from the body.

This is "Daphne" the newest addition to our family! She 
a standard and is just 11 months old. She is an absolute gem. "Leyna" and "Daphne" hit it right off and immediately started playing. "Daphne"s parents rescued her in Feb. of this year and now are moving to New Zealand and unable to take her along so JD and I welcomed her into our home.
Candace I know you are crying reading this, as I know first hand how your heart is broken. Please know that she settled right in and is now sound asleep on the couch.
The girls on the couch taking a break after terrorizing the house! "Daphne" is exactly what "Leyna" needed.
