Sick Doggies Suck

Messy Christian's family dog is getting on in years. Nicky is having trouble breathing and may not last too much longer.

Amybear and I have both lost family pets in the last few years. My last dog died of cancer when I was in graduate school. Amy's dog died of old age and kidney problems two years back. It's hard. Pets are like family, at least ours were. We miss them both terribly and are looking forward to getting married and getting an animal.

When we talk about it online, we inevitably start looking at dog breed sites. I like the Sheltie and Amy has picked out some other eastern breeds that she saw in a tv dog show.

Anyway, best wishes Messy and I hope Nicky keeps on keeping on.
