Pooh Bear's last day

Gauge, Pooh Bear & Dixie (and puppies)
( I had a really cute pic of when he was a pup; that was before digitals and I can't find it.)

So it is a sad fall day because we had to put our 16 year old yellow lab to sleep.. He was the prettiest male dog I have ever seen (sorry Gauge) but wasn't much of a retriever.. He would do anything for food, of any kind, loved beer, and was quite the hunter of domestic animals (he killed the neighbors cat in front of the little girl, for example)! Pooh Bear smelled so bad, slobbered on everyone's pants, broke out of the yard on countless occasions and would hump anything that moved! He had hip dysplasia, seizures, and couldn't be bred... so you may think that we didn't love him, but we did.. He was the "albatross" around my dad's neck, and we never thought he would die.. but he needed to go!! He couldn't walk anymore, hardly see or hear, and at the end wasn't eating - and that was all we needed to know what we had to do!! We love you Pooh Bear and will miss you!! Thanks for all the memories!!

On a lighter, happier note: Emma's new towel.. I thought it looked too pretty and so white and fresh!!
