Beautiful image Dottie...swans are one of my fav's. We have tons of them over here at the lake by our weekend house. I will try to find a pic of them for Alex.

Here is a swan with her babbies..




oh and I thought Alex might enjoy these too...some winged friends, not all feathered though:

A Loon on the lake, I love these birds too:



Butterflies on the beach:




Hope you enjoyed Dottie and Alex.

Oh, Sonya! Thank you so much for the awesome photos. I have a really huge thing for swans myself. That they have one mate for life is very dear indeed. I've posted swans for Alex several times. And, you know how much I love butterflies. Alex gets a bunch of those, too. Awww! Say, isn't it just oh so cute, adorable and precious when the mommy swans carry their babies on their backs?

And when two swans face each other to form a heart shape? Awww!





Ya know what else forms a heart shape? Our hands! And the following is oh so true ...





What boundless treasures we've found in our friends here!

Many Comforting Hugs to you and your Angel Fur Kid Brutus!!!

Always,
Dottie xoxoxox

Sonya and Dottie, what beautiful photos, Alex would love them all I'm sure. Hope you are both doing ok.

Luv madi xx

Thank you so much, Madi. Big Hug! I've been thinking an awful lot about you and wondering how you're holding up especially when holidays intensify our grief from having lost our fur and feather kids. And, I've been feeling so bad also cuz I have lots of photos from Jan and Sonya to enhance and make pretty, but you won't be able to send me any until your son shows you how to send pictures of your precious Ulriich at a normal size. So, guess what? After reading about how much you love horses, unicorns, Pegasus, fairies, Angels and so on, I decided to make something especially for you for Christmas. Been working on it for about a week or so and just finished it last night. Oh, so gold and sparkly.

Now, don't get too excited. LOL. It did come out awesome, however it's a fairly small image and I just know you're going to love it! Would you like me to post it on your thread here in this area or in the getting to know you thread in the cyber shoulder area? I'm working on a couple others for you, too. Sure do hope they look lovely when I'm done. Please let me know where to post the Christmas present I made for you. Okay? Until then, you know I'm thinking about you and your cherished fur baby. Wishing you mystical, magical, marvelous dreams tonight and always!

Many Comforting Hugs to you and your Angel Fur Kid Ulriich!!!



Always,
Dottie xoxoxox

PS. No, that ain't the image I made for you. Hehehe. Viva Australia!

Hi Dottie, Jan uploaded some photos of Ulriich for me from my face book album. What a treasure she is. They are on my Ulriich " I would like some help" post, can't wait for you to have a look Dottie, it's exciting.

madi xx

Post them here Dottie, I would love to see what special thing you have done for me. The angel photo is awsome, but how did you know I looked like that? LOL, I wish.

madi xx (awesome flag)

Doh on me, Madi.

I just saw them posted by Jan about an hour or so ago so went straight to work.

Here's the first one I enhanced and also posted it on your thread.

Hope you like it.





He is so very beautiful, Madi. I Love him to bits and pieces!

Many Comforting Hugs to you and your Angel Fur Kid Ulriich!!

Always,
Dottie xoxoxox

You silly woman. Madi, don't you know I'm psychic? And, yes you do look exactly like that Angel. In my eyes, you sure do. I am smiling at you! Say, I replied to your last post in the Cyber Shoulder Getting to Know You area. Sneak a peek. It will make you smile, too.

Oh, so you want your Christmas present here and now? Sure thing, Hon! Here it is and, if you wish, I'll tell you how I put it all together. By the way, I've never tried doing something like this before and am so glad it turned out really pretty for you.

Merry Christmas, Madi Dear!





I think "Yule" love it.

Kisses to you and your Angel Fur Kid Ulriich!!!

Big Hugs!!!

Always,
Dottie xoxoxox

I do love it Dottie, it's absolutely beautiful, I'm going to try and print it off and blow it up, (not like I do in the kitchen though, I hope) I will go and try and find the cyber shoulder now. Thanks again, take care.

Love the swan pic with the babies on her back...great job Dottie with Ulriich's photo.

Thinking of you and Alex,
Brutus' Mom

Hi Madi and Sonya. Madi, I'm so glad you love the image I made for you. Thank you! And, that is a wonderful Australian flag. I've got animated and non animated flags that represent countries, nations, states as well as other flags and in all sizes, too. That's a medium sized one of Australia and I love it, too. Jan and Sonya, would you love to have a neato waving flag of your countries? It would be my pleasure. Just say the word.

Oh, Sonya. Swans. I've got a million of them. Well, photos, images, Website backgrounds and so on. I don't have any where I live now, but have in the past. Not exactly where I lived. Still, only a short walk away. Beautiful! And, here's another beautiful, breathtaking moment of "Ahhh!" My good friend Debbie who I've spoken about many times here sent this to me and I have done nothing but host it. No enhancements whatsoever. A very sweet photo.

Oh my goodness! That is truly a "Kodak Moment" for sure. Ya know what? It sure looks like an actual photograph to me, however there are some very brilliant artist out there. Can anyone read the name at the lower left so I can google to make sure it's a photo and not art? It looks like "Lasnauga" with the date of 2005. Let me take a quick look see. BRB. Nope. Can't find it, but I feel certain that's photography. Awesome!

Talk at ya'll later. Have a lovely day. Big Hugs!!!

Always,
Dottie xoxoxox

Wow...that above pic is gorgeous...stunning! Here is some furry little chicks...these were my girls when they were little babies:

Dottie I love the Swan picture.
Sonya your darling little chicks are so cute.

Love Jan x

Hi, Sonya and Jan. I'm so glad you love the swan photo as much as I do. Sonya, I'm wondering if those are your goldens as chicks. I love the photos you posted of them in their eggs (not yet hatched) taken through the glass of the incubator. Then, following their progress as they make in into this world, your home and your heart. The fully matured one that you're holding in the photo you posted is absolutely breathtakingly awesome and I am serious. Word! Thank you both so very much for speaking with me. It means more to me than mere words can express.

Many Comforting Hugs to you, your families and Angel Fur Kids!!!



Always,
Dottie xoxoxox

Hi Dottie I just have to tell you the past two nights I have stayed up to wee hours of the morning reading your intire story of your Alex. I have really mixed emotions as to what happened to your sweet Alex part of me believes he truley flew away in search for you. I know you said he would never fly off and didnt like it outside but after reading your words about your beloved Alex and how smart he was I am sure he knew these people where no good. By the way was his wings clipped? The other part really believes they kept him or they sold him I just dont think they hurt him. They wanted him for a reason$$$$$$. It took sometime to return his gage and to me that is because he was he was still in it. I hope I am not being out of place expressing my thoughts but I went to bed last night thinking of you and your Alex. I want you to know your post are so inspirational to all of us here. I have read all of your post and you have a very special love for your Alex and special heart for others. You really have turned your pain and loss towards helping others. I haven't been here long but in the short time here you have a way in your words that is comforting. We as humans get so involved in our own pain that we cant see or truley feel others. The pictures and songs and poems you post show the true person you are inside and out. You truley make me feel how not alone I am. I just want to take time from my own sorrow and tell you please keep doing what your doing because the power of love and faith is what gets us through another day. Never give up on your Alex because if he is out there somehow someway he will find you. So many stories of beloved pets finding thiere way home.

Hugs to you
Anna

Dear Dottie, Anna and all
I underline and endorse everything that you wrote Anna. You put it all so well.
I feel exactly the same as I'm sure many others on here do but I couldn't express those thoughts and feelings better than you have Anna.

Love and God bless to all and our darling angels.

Jan xx

Dottie
Thank you for lifting my heart. I told Jan you are the human heart whisperer. Please know your work is so well appreciated and admired by many. You have a gift and you sure know how and when to use it.

Bless You
Anna
