    More good thoughts and prayers for Django.

    Thank you everybody for your kind words about Brian. It's getting better - but boy our backyard is still very empty.

    Just thought I would share this, while it's a sad story because the dog could have died....I'm so impressed by the dog knowning to honk the horn to get attention....he saved his own life and hopefully the owner gets the maximum punishment for animal cruelty!

    Hi there,
    Just want to say thank you to all the lovely members who helped me with Henry's surgery going back a few years ago. You helped to allow him to have a few more years in comfort and to that I will be eternally grateful.
    Unfortunately now, he's not himself, barks at nothing, can't see and can't hear. He is snappy with the kids too and it's obvious he's not happy anymore. :( He's gone down hill ALOT this year but mind you, he is 16 years old. I am taking him down to the vet to do the right thing for him ( if only we could do the same for humans hey?). Just wanted to say thank you again and could we please add him to your 'in memory' list.
    :(
    Thank you for all the well wishes. xxxx

    Hugs! You are doing right by him. I'm glad we were able to
    Help you be able to spend the last few years with him, they always let you know when they're ready.

    My sweet boy Django died yesterday. =((

    I've lost my wild child, uber-destructive puppy who grew up to be my sweet, easygoing buddy. My fierce protector (at least in his mind). My couch cuddler and foot warmer.

    If you'd told me a month ago that we'd come to this, I don't think I'd have believed it. Looking back, I can see that there were a few hints during the last few months that something might be wrong but they were so minor it never occurred to me that something was going on with his health. Things took a dramatic turn 3 weeks ago and really accelerated in the last 10 days. We went through numerous tests to try to figure out why his kidneys were failing and if anything could be done. Ultimately, all that came to a logical conclusion: Django would not get better and had been through enough. Yesterday, Glenn and I said our goodbyes and let him go.

    I know I've posted all these pictures before but please indulge me as I remember him here. I really loved that little guy.

    Adorable puppy face hides a mind bent on destruction!

    "What? It's hot, I have a fur coat . . ."

    Django would have turned 12 at the end of this month. I think he had a good life. I know he had lots of love.

    When I think about all the dogs I've known, I believe that Django and Pete were in the top 1% of awesome dogs.

    We had a family portrait made in 2007. I really like that my 2 boys are in the picture with us.

    When Django got to Dog Heaven, I'm sure that Pete was waiting for him at the gate.
