Just lost our gran-dog Jamie. 15 year old English Shepherd. She just wore out from a life of living it to the fullest. Loved people, walks, going on hikes, camping. Jamie would have made a lousy guard dog as she would have wanted to make friends with the bad guys. Going to miss her. It;s strange how you can tell some people we have grand-dogs in the same breath as grandkids and they go "huh" while others understand completely.
Sorry about your loss, too.... :-(
When you raise your kids to love animals, it's inevitable that they will need pets in THEIR lives, too; and since we often babysit our grandpets - yes, they're just an extension of the family :-)
