7. Thanks, Ptah...
He was 14, and has been going downhill for about a year. Arthritis, a tumor on his face, and recently incontinence issues...

14. I must need better speakers
I was trying to get my dogs to react to the video and didn't get much.

That is quite a trick.

Looks like a Collie-lab. My Mitzi was part collie lab and she used to react to the ELO song "4 little diamonds". Perhaps because I oftened played the tape of "Secret messages" when I was driving up to my land. Anyway, I used to sing "4 little Mitzis" and still sing that sometimes when it plays on my ipod even though Mitzi has been dead for a few years. Unfortunately she didn't live forever, but she will never be forgotten.

27. Wonderful Wolfgang!
He was a beautiful creature, and i love his song.
He looks like my old hiking partner from the 60's-70's- my best friend's dog, Klaus, and my old dog from the 80's, Brindle. They'll always be in my heart and memories, as Wolfgang will be in yours and your family's. :hug: to you G of G, and give that cute son a :hug:!

29. so sorry GOG
:cry:

Grieve not,
nor speak of me with tears,
but laugh and talk of me
as if I were beside you.....
I loved you so --
'twas Heaven here with you.

36. Ohhhhh... I'm so sorry.
He looks like an old soul.

They give us so much love and bring such pleasure into our lives. It's so terribly hard when they have to go.

Wishing him many fat and slow squirrels on the other side of the bridge.
