    I am so sorry to hear about this. What a wonderful tribute to your MooBoo. Rest easy McMurphy, play free at the bridge.

    What a wonderful tribute, Les.

    I am so sorry for your loss and you have my deepest sympathies. I am so grateful that you shared your wonderful MooBoo with us. What a character! Thank you so much for sharing him with us and for allowing us to be a part of this lovely tribute.

    Have fun playing at the bridge with your sister, Murph!

    Rest In Peace, McMurphy. You will be missed.

    Major LES going on here. The video was an awesome tribute to Murph. I remember Maddie too and can just imagine their reunion. Please accept my sincere condolences on the loss of your little friend. If I did the math correctly he was 18. What a wonderful long happy life he had.

    Cool God just got Another One!

    Farewell, McMurphy ~ your antics will be long remembered and never forgotten.

    Sure hope God can handle another one - You and my Bowser will make a good Pair to
    drive Him **crazy** with the "reverse commands" - "Come" and you guys GO;
    "Sit" and you both STAND; 3 Door Slams before it starts to sink in ... "Wonder if that's for ME?"


    Fond, very Fond, memories ... You're going to be *missed*, McMurphy!

    Hang on, God - Bowser and McMurph will surely *grow* on Ya!

    What an absolutely wonderful tribute to McMurphy. I wish I would have thought to have taken more videos of Snoopy especially doing his tricks. McMurphy was obviously a one of all time great dog and we all will miss him. Having just lost Snoopy, my heart goes out to you and all my tears are shed for both our special boys and Ashley's Shadow.

    Wow....this was wonderful. I loved that you remembers all his little quirks and even though I was teary eyed and sadden by his passing for you I also had a few little smiles as I pictured his funny little antics in my mind. What a wonderful personality he had, comical! I am sure he will be greatly missed and my heart goes out to you. I am truly sorry for your loss. ((hugs))

    Such a loving memorial for McMurphy, both the written word and the video. You certainly were blessed to have McMurphy in your life! I suspect he is one of a kind, he hee. Can't help but smile reading of all his antics, adventures and successes in stealing ALL the toys!

    Keep them all on their toes while you are waiting for all your humans at the bridge, McMurphy!

    RIP Murphy

    I'm sure going to miss those pictures and videos you were so great at getting.

    I've done my crying the last few days, so today...I will watch your video again and smile. Smile at what a great dog God has met

    I'm not very familiar with with McMurphy. But that video really let me know how he was. I was giggling and smiling through tears.
    He was a lucky dog to live so many wonderful years with you.
    RIP McMurphy - I am sure you welcomed the other PT dogs that recently joined you at the bridge. You can show them the ropes.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Thanks for all the kind words everybody. I sure miss seeing his happy lil' tail wag everyday. I keep expecting to see him come trotting into the kitchen, tail awaggin' and nose firmly planted to the tile, searching for crumbs. I've had to catch myself a couple of times from leaning out the back door calling for him.

    I was finally able to get his video uploaded to youtube. They were down for maintenance last night. The youtube version seems to play better on my computer for some reason then the photobucket one. So here's that link for those who prefer youtube:

    I'm so sorry to hear about your loss of your MooBoo. What a special boy he was. He was also absolutely adorable and that smile....oh my is that ever a smiling dog. Heaven did just get brighter, and God's surely giggeling at this new angel.

    I know it's so hard to witness, but what a blessing that McMurphy got to take his last breaths in the home that he loved, in the company of his favorite people and pups. I only wish all pups had such a peaceful passing.

    Hugs to you and your family and your collies.

    It's just been too busy at the RB with our PT pups this week.... I'm sorry to hear about McMurphy's passing, but he sounds like he will liven things up at the RB. Such a cute little guy! (((hugs))) to you & the collies.

    I am so very sorry for your loss. That tribute was just beautiful, I laughed and cried at the same time. It sure seems lately God has a big order for our furbabies, I know they are at peace and happy and healthy but we also miss them very much. RIP McMurphy you were a very bright star here on earth and will be an even brighter angel with God.
