    Hello friends, iv been doing a kitchen remodel, installing new windows and prepping the outside of the house for paint. I just wanted to say i had to send my best buddy to heaven to be with his big brother. Tito had gotten to the point where he couldnt walk. The tough part was he still was very coherent and alert for a 13 1/2 year old. We got alot of years with him for such a big guy. It was so hard telling Kamo his best friend is in heaven. My heart hurts and will miss you so much, you were the best wood buddy ever. I love you Tito boy!! 78183B77-DC59-4FA9-89DB-EE3DBF13C2AD.png

    Thank you Brad, its so hard but i have to realize hes in a better place now. I have so many pics and videos to look back on. Telling Kameron and my daughter was so painful but i do admit part of me is better today knowing theres no pain where he is.

    Put down our old boxer quite a few years ago. Been through three other dogs looking for a good one. Seem to have found her, the golden retriever in her has the wife frustrated as she has broken all of the little solar lights in the flower beds. Otherwise she is with the wife at all times while she is outside. Sorry for the loss, but it does open the door for a dog looking for a good home. Take your time, the right one will appear.

    Its a terrible thing to have to do and it hurts. But what hurts more is watching your buddy in constant pain. I put my boy Clyde (13 1/2 YO) down back in 2016 and it still hurts sometimes, so I know what you are going thru. Best wishes and when it comes time to get someone new, adopt. I have to go now. Dirt in my eye.

    Great lookin’ pooch. Sorry for your loss. We lost our best dog ever around ‘93 and I still remember her like it was 5 years ago.

    Sorry to hear about Titos passing. Always hard. But in time it seems we always find another buddy. Never replaces the one we have had but finds its own little niche in our hearts. Remember the good times.

    Sorry for your loss. Toughest part of having animals is the short life span compared to our own right! Hope you all are okay and well. I suggest cutting a few blocks and have a fire to honor him with your family!
