Oh, honey!
( I’m an old Southern man, that’s how I’d address you face to face )

I am so terribly sorry. Axel was beautiful, and I know how damn hard it is to to face this.

Fifteen years is such a long time to have such a friend. When I was young, a seven or eight year old dog or cat was pitifully geriatric- modern medicine and diet have helped immensely, but they still slip away far too soon.

Wife Miss Emily sends you her kindest wishes, too.

LOL. And I'd love it. :-)

Thanks Backhoe. We had to put Lilly down last October, and I remember the thread you posted for your best friend, around the same time, I think. BTW, how is the centrifugal puppy?

Thanks Miss Emily.

*HUGS*

I meant to add that he came to us when he was going on 5.
He was pretty mean then, and didn’t trust a soul.
With love and trust, we got him to accept his position in the pecking order ~ One down from any human except a threat.
