    Sorry to hear the news Don. We all tried our best to vibe Petey to a speedy recovery but it was not to be. I hope the sadness ends soon for you and yours. RIP Petey.

    I am gald he is in his around his favorite spot. The loss of a pet is a hard one. Being a pet owner has so many rewards but it is hard when the end comes.

    I am so sorry for you & your family, Don. I've lost dogs both young & old, and know how devastating it feels. Good of you to take him to a favorite spot.
    I win.

    Thank you all for all the great words I been reading. It actualy brought a few more tears to my eyes feeling the love.

    It was the right decision. That dont make it any easier. Funny I almost feel he knew some thing was about to happen.

    He was such a dope and baby he would never go any where by himself. He was so afraid of the stairs. We actualy had to take him out back and sit with him while he did his business. every morning 5;30 or 6 am

    The morning of his horrible seizures I was sitting on the cooler we have out there so we can sit with him he came up to me as he did every morning to get his daily back scratching. Well that morning it was longer than usual and he came back around for another scratching. He then turned gave me a kiss and went on his way.

    Thats what my last memories are of him. Im very grateful for that. Because after we let him in I went back up stairs to lay down and an hour latter my wife was screaming for me to help him.

    I realy am very grateful for all the comments and the feeling that you all are here for my family and me. Ive said before I have no family other than me and my wife and kids so to have all of you makes it a lot easier.

    I may have not meet all of you but I feel I know most of you and I sure hope to one day meet you all. See this is why Pearl Jam cant go out on us. They bring the world togeather. It may sound Corney. But with out them I wouldn't of known you guys ;)

    Thank you all and lots of love back at you and your families. :D
