Poor sad doggie!

[xsmommy]

made me cry.

[Conspiracy Guy]

Sad story : (

[Zacs Mom]

How neat! I'd love to visit there someday ... of course, I won't be doing any extended overseas travel as long as my dog is alive. I simply would never board him ~ I think he'd pine away. He travels with us everywhere and is one of those dogs who is never far from our side for long.

[Dooderbutt]

I'm an Air Force brat, and we were stationed over there for 7 years, total. The UK is a beautiful country, but cold and grey a lot of the time.

[Laura Earl]

You think Lu would be that way?

[Conspiracy Guy]

Not over me.

[Laura Earl]

I don't think she would over me either. She might want a short ride tonite after Jazz.

[xsmommy]

i see my Loosh just wagging his tail and going off with whomever found my dead rotting corpse... ; )

When my mother's fiance collapsed from a heart attack in the yard mowing the lawn, our dog would not leave his side. The paramedics could barely get the dog to move aside so they could treat him. He didn't make it.

[Argh]

Probably because of the smell. This might be obviated if you'd take the occasional shower, drastic though such a step may seem.

:^)

[Laura Earl]

That's what Lu would do too.

[xsmommy]

with a thought bubble over his little head saying "gee, wonder if they have any good treats..."

[Conspiracy Guy]

; )

[Laura Earl]

So he's a treat ho too.

[Conspiracy Guy]

LOL

[xsmommy]

totally!

[Laura Earl]

Lu weighed 80 lbs when she went for her annual, so she's been on a diet - she's back down to 75 lbs already.

[kassie]

Amen!

[tioga]

That's really sad.
