I, SILVERDENE EMBLEM O'NEILL (familiarly known to my family, friends, and acquaintances as Blemie), because the burden of my years and infirmities is heavy upon me, and I realize the end of my life is near, do hereby bury my last will and testament in the mind of my Master.

My Torey was also a border Collie Mix. There is a picture of her on my profile page.

A big hug for you and RIP Nick.

It has brought warm tears to my eyes remembering my gone pets...Buttons, Kritter, Rheka, Callie, Hank, Phoenix and many more. I rescue and care for many abandoned animals. Rescue of the abandoned often leads to heartache. I have loved them all. Now, I still have four cats rescued 1997 still in good health but know their time is short.

I am very sorry for your loss. I hope he is out of any pain he was in, and I am sure he absolutely knew he was loved to little pieces all his life.
