Jimmy, such a beautiful dog. I know she brought you and Winnie many hours of happiness. They become part of the family and it is so hard to give them up. God bless you and Winnie. It takes a big man to have that tender of a heart.........Trish & Ed

Jimmy, I know how you feel, mine got ran over in April and I'am still not over it. Sometime I go to her grave in the back yard and sit down and cry my eyes out. I have had dogs all my life, but she was my baby. She would ride with me when I cut grass,I could crank that lawn mower up and she would come running. The noise when that car hit her is what bothered me so much, when I heard it I knew it was her. Well that is enough of my sorrow, I'am just sorry that you lost your baby too. Maybe you can take it better than I have. I know she will be missed. Paul

Paul, the thing that STILL tears me up is that, as Miss Spicey lay in her bed dying, too weak to raise her head or open her eyes, she still wagged her tail at the sound of my voice. Humans can't even really imagine such love, while a beautiful angel like Miss Spicey is just MADE of it! I miss her SO much!

Thanks so much for the call. I was sitting out there in my rocker again when Winnie brought me the phone and said it was you. Good to know that other folks feel the same way about their pets.

Ed, like I said, it's terrific to hear from you anytime, even if it's only a word or two. And you can always get Trish to do the keyboard stuff for you. Heck, you got a GOOD-lookin' secretary right there. LOL

Take care,
Jimmy
