Doris Burkey of High Ridge recently sent a photo of Lala, a 13-year-old Chihuahua, along with her two dog siblings, Casanova and Goonie, who have since died.
Casanova, a boxer-mastiff mix, died at 13, and Goonie, a Pekingese, died at 12, Burkey said.
“Casanova was the best dog,” Burkey said. “I rescued him from the Humane Society. Goonie had a great personality.”
Lala remains active, despite her advanced age, Burkey said.
“Lala dances. She can’t sit still,” Burkey said. “She’s a true Chihuahua.”
Burkey said she eventually got another dog, Rupert, a pitbull-boxer mix.
