Last summer, a photo of a man cradling his elderly dog in Lake Superior pierced the hearts of millions. Schoep, a shepherd mix who turned 20 on June 15, passed away on Wednesday, but his image will remain a lasting tribute to the deep and loving bond that can run between humans and their canine companions. Owner John Unger posted a brief Facebook statement on Thursday, saying, "I breathe but I can't catch my breath...Schoep passed yesterday."

Your post has made me cry.
Our basset/yellow lab mix received chemo about six months ago for lymphoma. We found out two days ago it has come back with a vengeance and his time on earth is very limited.
I would easily trade ten years of my life to have him healthy and pain free.
To: Cowgirl of Justice
My prayers for you and your pal, that God would comfort both of you during this time.
