She sounds like a wonderful dog. I know how it is with animal members of the family. In November, I had to send my beloved cat Moly to that great tuna-can-opener sanctuary in the sky. She went out in a tearful rendition of her theme song, "Poopy Diaper", sung to Handel's Messiah. (Don't ask. It involves litter boxes.) I miss her poopy, poopy furry self. Connie –

My beloved Tabitha stuck around for a long time. Izzy did indeed pick well when she selected you and Lee.

She was a big presence in a household filled with many a big presence. What a great family of creatures big and small. The memory of this pooch will always be a special one. I’ll miss Miss Izzy.

She was a grand dog and I loved her dearly. I know she had a marvelous life with the Stetsons and I went on some of the adventures myself. I will miss her for the rest of my life.

They never talk back, love me unconditionally, go and do anything I want them to and are always happy to see me and even listen to my advice. I am sorry about your dog Izzy. She was a lucky dog.
