Thanks Doug, I've got another to add..

Yesterday when I went out to feed, one of my Blue Heelers got kicked in the head by my mare. She was DRT (dead right there). I couldn't believe it. This dog has been kicked in the head so many times, knocked out cold and always has survived, Last week I was getting in my trailer to get out the saddle and the trailer fell of the jack and she was under neath. She was screaming and we had to get the floor jack out to get it up. I was sure her back was broke, but once we got the trailer up a bit she came out just fine. I had decided then the dog was immortal, then yesterday she got a kick from a horse with no shoes and croaks. Go figure. At least she died quick and doing what she loved most, tormenting my horses.

The whole family had a love/hate feeling for the dog. She was probably 10 yrs. old. But we figured she had some brain damage from all the kicks she has had which is why she was such a nerotic dog. She was so sweet to people, but she was a definite loony tune. I am sad she is gone, at times she was fun to watch, but last night when I went out to feed, it was so easy and quiet getting the horses up, there was no blue streak dashing about nipping heels barking hysterically. Now we just need to see how bad the other heeler we have who was best friends with her, and my Jack Russell handles her being gone. Josey (the dead one) was the only one who played with Susie, the other heeler is older, 13, I think they will both miss her, just don't know how much..

Sorry to hear that Becky. Losing a dog is always sad.

Wow...sorry to read about that. It's a good story in a sad sort of way if you know what I mean.
