Twins?

Stormy of the Ao4 reminds my human of her sweet, departed Shula, who went to the Rainbow Bridge in November 2005, just a month before I was found. Mom says they have the same eyes, and extremely similar facial markings. Therefore, Stormy holds a very special place in mom's heart, and she often gets a tear in her eye whenever she sees pictures of Stormy. She says they are "good" tears, because it helps her remember Shula, how much she loved her, and what she might be doing around our house, if she were still here. I thought I would share pictures of Stormy and Shula and see if anydog else thought they looked like twins!



This is Stormy.




And this is Shula.


So, what do you think?

Shula looks like a senior version of Stormy. They could be mother and daughter. That would make Shula grandmom to the rest of the Ao4.

They sure do look alot alike! Especially their pretty eyes. Both are lovely sibe girls. Was Shula very old when she went to the Bridge?

Wooos,

Such a pretty girl! Yes Shula does look like Stormy. Same yes and almost the same mask. Could have been sister! We know what its like to lose a pack mate and how it feels to be reminded of how special they are and were. We think Shula and our Tia are playing togeather now at the Bridge.

Thank you all for your lovely comments on sweet Shula. I agree with Magnum, I think mother and daughter sounds possible!!

And to answer Star and Sherman, Shula was 16 when she went to the bridge. She was rescued by the human woman when she was 13 1/2. And, considering she had extremely MINIMAL care (no shots/vaccinations for over 3 years, and NO dental care ever) it is amazing she had made it that long! Mom gave her medical care, a good dental cleaning, and TONS and TONS of love and care. I think thats why she lived so long. She was trying to make up for 13 1/2 years of poor treatment!

Hey Holly, I just thought of somrthing! It's entirely possible that Shula WAS my bio-mom! I mean .... we don't know where I came from! What a great thought!

PS: Your mom must have REALLY given Shula GREAT care in her last years. You have a VERY good mom!!!

Yes, definitely very alike. Both beautiful doggies!

Such a shame about Poor Shula, and such a beautiful name.

Stormy is very beautiful just like your Shula was.
