“My little dog – a heartbeat at my feet.”

My brother Wayne, who has friends throughout Greenville County, with the help of one of those friends at the county dog shelter, found the perfect companion for our parents – a dog (a Brussels Griffon/Yorkie/Silky Terrier mix). She is approximately two years old, weights 7-8 pounds, and has been names Izzy. She and my mother have become inseparable, my father hasn’t decided if she should stay or go. Before I met Izzy, my mother wanted me to know that “she is not a very pretty dog (My concern is that this may be how my dear mother introduced me to people.). Well, Izzy was a gamble on Wayne’s part – one that is already paying many happy dividends.
