    Some background info: Soul was hit by a car/truck. Rescued by Stray Rescue of St Louis but when they took X rays the news was grim: a broken back that could not be repaired. Soul was humanely put down. His bonded female wouldn't leave his side even after death.

    IMG_2559.jpg We had to put our dog down about 2 months ago. He was 16 and had kidney problems. The past year we could see he was slowly going downhill. Walks got a lot shorter. He would take his toy room to room trying to find a place to hide it. One day he fell down the stairs. That did him in. A few days ago we put an application in to adopt two dogs at a rescue shelter. Now it’s a waiting game. Getting teary eyed now as I write this. It’s hard losing a buddy.

    We had to put ours down in March, the hardest thing to have to do. Miss him terribly! We have been discussing when to adopt another, don't think we are ready yet. I feel for your loss and good on you for adopting!

    Yes, he was our camping buddy. We already canceled one camping trip. We’re going camping this week. I’m really not into it because he won’t be there. Hopefully I’ll hear something soon about the adoption.

    We have had many pets over the years, all of them were recuse animals. Our latest addition was Thursday, we adopted a pair of kittens from a local rescue in town. The best part is 26 hours later taking one to the vet for an infection. Gotta love how they took the smallest elizabethan collar than had and trimmed it down to fit.
