There are those of us out here who can really understand what Annette has been experiencing while Gino was ill and what she went through in making the decision and what her emotions will be like for some time. Gino P. Doggins is a wonderful name and 17 years is a very long life for a dog. He must certainly have been well cared for and loved. I certainly hopes he meets up with Bailey and Tizzie. I always envision how they must run and jump and play at the Bridge with their freedom from the age and illness.
