Thank you all for your kind words. I will share them with Mike, when he is ready. I live in Indiana and he is in Florida, and this is just another example of how difficult long distance relationships are. I wish I was there to help him through this. Mike was off of work for almost 2 months (double pneumonia) and he and Midnight REALLY bonded during that time. She was always at his side (and mine when I was there)... and I know he truly misses his shadow!

She was a great pup! And is so sorely missed.
