Xena Beena

 Xena (otherwise known as Xena Beena) is Jason's mom's dog and Lucas loves her so much.  We have always called her his dog and she has been in his life since he was born.  This morning we had the awful job of telling Lucas that his doggy had died.

Xena has had a rough few months and had gone completely blind and was having an impossible time with walking anywhere lately, her legs were literally not working anymore.  We think she may have had a stroke or something similar that caused all of her recent health problems.

 One of the first photos I have of them together, Lucas is about 4 months old.  Lucas was not too sure what to think at first.

 Xena was never far away when Lucas was getting into something messy, they were definitely partners in crime.




Xena and Lucas spending another lazy day at the cottage.

Lucas is going to miss her terribly, she was his first puppy.  She was definitely an important part of our family and luckily we will have lots of memories of fun times spent with her to remember her by.

  1. I'm sorry to hear of the loss of Xena. You can tell the two of them really enjoyed being with each other! I hope Lucas is doing alright, so glad you have many happy memories to look back on.
