    Looks like Loveshack was parked at the Moonraker in Gulf Shores, maybe not, but I am looking forward to this report, I know it will be a good one. Thanks Dave!

    Ugh ! So sorry for your loss. Our dogs are family, unconditional love at all times. Very rare in most humans.

    Awesome- a new Idave RR.Been wondering when the next RR would come along!................So sorry for the loss of mowgli. It's amazing how sometimes people can get more attached to dogs then their own family...but like was said earlier, Dogs love unconditionally....Enough said. Anyways, glad to see you back....Do tell more.

    I can relate, 'Ozzy' is our border collie, we got him from the animal shelter, crazy smart dog, crazy loving and guards his space and his family like a black bear. He blew out his knee in a major way, he's 9y ears old and the question went through our minds can we afford the $1500 operation on an old dog. Truth is it took only 2 seconds to decide. He still limps and probably always will but 'Ozzy' is family, we may only get another couple of years but losing him now would have been huge and we weren't ready.

    Looking forward to the RR.

    and sorry for your loss. I am a big fan of shepherds, had a few myself, you're stories always seem to hit home and glad you're able to share such personal and intimate parts of your lives with us. Thank you. Ride on.

    Dave, we've had the same thing happen to us and when you've lived it you know and feel the hurt that others are feeling. I'm still sniffling as I type this now. My avatar is a picture of Libby our 13 yr old yellow Lab, she is our angel and I dread the day she goes. I've had to give up many trips because of her age but even if I never did another cross country ride the love she gives is worth it. Sorry to ramble.
