My dog died

The dog I could not find a good picture of is the one that died. The last pictures I have of her is in 2007. She wasn't much for taking her picture. She would always bark when we tried to take her picture. She died in her sleep. She was in her dog house and looked like she was sleeping. I think she was broken hearted and lonely. I tried to keep her company sometimes. But I was not Casey. Casey was always in the back yard with her. And I think I noticed her howling about this time last year. She ate the day before she died. And the next day when I went to feed her she would not eat. My husband went out the next morning to check on her and he found her dead. She had been howling off and on the past year toward evening. I would go and check on her when she howled or I would open the window and talk to her, but I guess it wasn't enough. She loved children. One afternoon when I went to feed her, the little boy across the road went with me. She perked up when she saw him. He use to play with Casey, so she knew him.
She had the prettiest blue eyes. She was Austrian Shepard and Lab mix. I am just 5 feet tall and when she stood up that's how tall she was. I'll miss her.
