Charlie

Charlie has been our best buddy for eight years.  Last week he seemed lethargic and so we took him to our local vet and then to a speciality animal hospital.  We found out he had a large tumor in one section of his heart.  Charlie now continues to be with us in our memories.  He went with us on our vacations.  He loved riding on ATVs and thought we bought the side-by-side with a bed in back especially for him.  Jim had to give him a ride each time he used it. He reminded us about mealtime.  He took the job of protecting us very seriously.  Charlie was a great dog and friend.

So sorry to hear of the loss of your friend. We lost our 16 year old this spring. I know you will miss him very much.

Thanks to all of you. I just did not realize how much time he spent with me and how much time I took from him!Jane
