Elwood- good dog. Smiling face. Wagging tail. Swimming, running, fetching. We called her Mama-dog because she was such a mother to the other animals she shared her time here with.
We knew that this time would come and find comfort in the small joys she had this summer: lots of naps and rest- inside and in the warm sun, love and special pats. Watching her deteriorate over the past week was difficult. We were so blessed to have our vet and friend come out this afternoon so she wouldn't have to bear one more trip to his office.
It has only been a few hours but already it feels like something is missing from the house.
Elwood- run hard, eat cookies, get belly rubs, swim in the river, and keep an eye on us. We will miss you always.

I'm so sorry. It's so hard to lose a member of the family, even if the time has come. Hugs to all of you.
