We took Bubbas to the emergency hospital last night and put him to
sleep. He went downhill so fast, even Friday he was doing okay and then
just deteriorated before our eyes. We couldn't let him suffer. We're
going out to bury him at my parents' farm and plant a native dogwood
there in his memory. I can't believe he's gone, he was the best dog I
could have ever asked for. The kitties had a good big brother and they
seem to miss him too. I'll miss seeing his sweet face when I come home
and how he'd wriggle about and wag his tail as fast as it could go.
Nothing makes you feel better than knowing you make someone's day just
by being there. Thank god I have the kitties or I don't know what I'd do.

I want to thank all the kind words you've all sent. I tried to respond
to each one, but it seems one of the servers I post from was not
actually posting. So for those who did not get a response, you did - it
just didn't show. :)

Love,

Karen
