I am so sorry to hear about your sweet doggie....I just figured out yesterday our sweet shelter girl is 15 now. She is totally deaf but is as eager as ever to take her walk around the lake each day and greets us with never ending enthusiasm. I am not ready to say goodbye to her. I believe dogs are the only creatures that love us more than they love themselves. I have no doubt yours led a full, happy, spoiled life. Which is exactly as it should be. Big hug to you today.
