A 5 year old that I might have a chance for. His owner passed, poor thing. He's a Belgian Tervuren.

She described him as really friendly and good with kids. But then, that's expected of shepherds. Sitting here waiting for her call back. He's on the east coast, she's his breeder in Minnesota, and he's being returned to her.

My wife has a wall where she puts the pictures of animals we have had and presently have. She took them down to rearrange them. She laid them out on the pool table so I took these pictures. I think its cool, sad,happy and funny all at the same time

Well, today will be the end of an era. Today my eldest pup K.C. Is crossing the “Rainbow Bridge”. He has had growing weakness in his hips and legs. He has a degenerative area of his spine below the rib cage. Then he took a nasty fall a day or two after Christmas getting out of the car at the park. He hurt his front shoulder and back. The vet gave us a couple meds for him…pain and nerve meds. The idea being that the drowsiness would keep him quiet so he could heal. Unfortunately, while his injuries seem to have healed, it allowed his rear end to get weaker.
He has slowly regressed to the point that it is virtually impossible to get up. He did get up yesterday around noon to go outside, but he was very weak and stumbly. He did a slow fall once. My wife assisted him to his feet so he could continue his business.
Last night he was in some discomfort. We got him comfortable and he had a peaceful night. He will not get better from this and we do not want him to suffer. Thankfully the meds seem to keep him in a good place pain wise.

I said that this will be the end of an era. I say that for countless reasons. Out of all the pups we have owned, and currently own…he was very special. He just had this joy to him that was infectious. He was that once in a lifetime dog. We have been blessed to have him.

Now, we have to part, and it hurts so bad. I should probably drink a gallon or two of water so that I don’t dehydrate from the tears.

Thankfully the vet is coming to the house. He will pass in his living room. Calm, comfortable, and at ease.

We love you K.C. !!! Run free and play with the gang !
