    Here he is enjoying his car ride to his forever home.

    And meeting Doogie

    Already learning how to enjoy my, uh, his bed.

    Now this is just too cute.

    I think he's going to be a velcro dog. He's right beside my computer chair. He is just one of the sweetest dogs. Even if he doesn't make it through the treatment, at least he'll know he was loved and had a good home. Please pray with all your might that he does. I hope we have some happy years together. EVERYTHING about this feels right. I have no doubts and am not second guessing myself like before.
    Right now, I'm happy and sad at the same time. Today is the first day that I've truly smiled and felt some happiness. Yet I'm on the verge of tears because I'm missing Duke. Tomorrow will be a month since he's been gone. I feel some divine intervention was made with this match so surely he's meant to live through the treatment? I've had too much sadness lately. This is quite a gamble but one I'm more than willing to take.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    That is wonderful you have a vet that can do the treatment for free. Hopefully he will do just fine. Its a good thing it is cold, and he wont spread it without misquitoes..
    He will be in my prayers and he is a distinquished gentlemen!!!!

    AAWWEE!! He just looks like such a sweetheart! I hope he makes it through his treatment. From reading your other posts, I think you are the best person to get him.

    Good Luck!!
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I'm really happy for you Val. I think Duke would approve of you adopting an older dog. Paws crossed & prayers for Dasher's treatments. He looks like a sweetheart, will look forward to more pics of your new boy!

    What a sweet looking man he is, and that smile...WOW! No wonder you felt he really needed to come home with you.

    I will be adding my thoughts and prayers that Dasher gets the treatment and shares many wonderful years with you.

    He is a "dashing" boy Val. Very handsome and he seems to know he is home. Prayers for Dasher. Get well boy.
