I'm somewhat ashamed to say it but I ...He did.<br /><br />I'm somewhat ashamed to say it but I won't miss him much. He came into the house without my permission or consent, nor was my opinion sought beforehand, as a gift to my late wife. When she passed I was left to care for him even though we were never best of friends. <br /><br />He had some (understandable) anxiety issues from that point on so he was never very far from me. Mrs Hades was very good for both of us but he never warmed up to her like she would have liked him to. Be that as it may, she is more upset by his passing than I am. <br /><br />I have to say that even though I say I won't miss him much I do keep expecting to hear his claws ticking against the floor whenever I move from one room to the other. <br /><br />I'm sure Laura will love having her dog back.<br /><br />Thanks for dropping by phred.Larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11308171394825291900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35333449.post-60744556645536875822019-06-10T22:48:09.694-04:002019-06-10T22:48:09.694-04:00I'm sorry to hear about it, but it sounds like...I'm sorry to hear about it, but it sounds like the boy has had a good run.phredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09386011545883293822noreply@blogger.com
