Maddie..... 1997 to 2010


This is probably the hardest post that I have had to write so far... as this was one of those decisions that nobody ever wants to make. Today, we had to put Maddie our 13 year old Portugese Water Dog down. She has been not 100% for a while, and it was waiting for the right time, and unfortunately, her time was now. She was an intricate part of our family and we will miss her dearly - Cheers to Maddie





Dave will miss you!!!

  3. Thinking of you. I remember getting our lab Bailey around the same time that you got Maddie and he died this past March. Very difficult and timing is rarely okay...so sorry to hear about Maddie.

  6. As we tell the boys, it's the circle of life. not always that comforting though. As for Colin, he's already richer for having you and famous by association. :P
