I didn't mean to make you cry kimberly :( It sure is difficult saying goodbye to someone you love. The thing about that moment that was equally as painful was that I was basically saying goodbye to my childhood. He brought out the kid in me and had been my companion since I was a boy, I would guess that for many people there are clear moments when they feel like childhood was behind them, well that was mine.

I have two dogs now and while I love them dearly, I question the logic in our decision to get them. If you are a responsible dog owner, and we are, then caring for them is a LOT of work. We have a vizsla and an english pointer and they both require a lot of exercise. They're awesome, but we just don't have the time in our lives that we once did.
