My hound died today. My wife is in Edmonton and my family is 3000km away ,so, you guys being my surrogate family get to hear it. She was just a dog but she's always been there for my thick and thin. She knew when to lie on my feet when they were cold and when I was sad she would come over for a pat on the head. She got a grossly distended stomach about 10am and died about 4:45pm when I ran to get my son from the sitters. I just came home from burying her , near the river on a hill.
She way always happy to see me come home whether I was an ass or not. I hope she is chasing rabbits and cats and getting in to the garbage where ever she is now. Just a dog but she sure got under my skin, going to miss her. Bark all you want now, Chelsey.
