Your buddies at work will be seeing her out of the corner of their eyes for months. Those are some special relationships, the "company" dog or cat. My sympathies...
Ava had them trained well. She always had a unlimited supply of dry dog food and fresh water. But truth be told she ate more people food then dog food. She was a great rabbit hunter and could feed herself in younger years on rabbit's.
Ava had a bed in the control room and went in and out as she pleased. Her favorite thing was to go for a truck ride.
Years ago the safety director tried to get rid of her (to much of a liability). Long story short she outlasted the safety director.
Ava also had good vet care as well.
I had not seen Ava in almost a year and they called me when they took her in. She recognized me when she heard my voice. I held her while the vet gave her the shot petting her and telling her what a good girl she was.
Another company person dug a grave on his farm for her.
