    Hi all,

    I hope that you're all right in thinking that he's free now, and can see, and is happier. I believe that to be true as well. A part of me thinks that maybe Gabe wanted to spare us from having to make the decision as to when/whether to end his life, so he made the choice for us. He was such a special little guy. Everyone he met, he made them smile. He was definitely a little funny looking, but that just added to his "charm" We wrapped him up in a special soft blanket and gave him a proper burial. I hope that at the bridge his head isn't swollen any more, and he can romp and play with all the pups there.

    - Liz


    Thank you Kay for the awesome siggy!!!

    Liz..... be assured that he IS perfect now! No swollen head, perfect vision.. and he's running like the best of them now!
    But most importantly... he loves you and thanks you for giving him a normal life, as short as it was. He knew what it felt like to be loved and he knew what it was like being part of a loving family.

    Oh Gosh... I'm sitting here with tears streaming down my face over that dear little boy Gabe. He looked like he was just so relieved and happy to be a part of your family, even if just for a short time. God Bless you for taking him in and showing him love and what family is. My heart just breaks for all of you in that kind of situation.

    Play hard at the bridge sweet Gabe! You'll see your adopted family again, one fine day! Look in on them now and again, because they will be missing you.

    Ahhhhh, poor baby Gabe. At least you gave him a wonderful home and a normal life without bars. He sure was a cute little fellow. I'm glad you got him. He looked so happy! You have to have a huge heart to go through what you did for that wonderful little baby. Thank you for taking him into your home and giving him such a happy life, and he did look so very happy.

    Poor baby He is so adorable! I know without a doubt that he knew you loved him.
    Gabe, I hope you're enjoying your day, playing on the rainbow bridge I think you're one of the best puppies in the world

    1. If I like it, it's mine.
    2. If it's in my mouth, it's mine.
    3. If I can take it from you, it's mine.
    4. If I had it a little while ago, it's mine.
    5. If it's mine, it must never appear to be yours in any way.
    6. If I'm chewing something, all the pieces are mine.
    7. If it looks just like mine, it's mine.
    8. If I saw it first, it's mine.
    9. If you are playing with something and you put it down, it automatically becomes mine.
