For many years she accompanied us on nearly all of the rides that we went on. She joined in on the long rides and did many twenty and forty mile rides.
In later years she had to become a house dog because bikers were afraid of her. I wish she could have always roamed free as she did during the first half of her life.
She has been remarkably healthy up until about six weeks ago when she had her first seizure. We knew her time was coming soon, but we did not know when.
It came today.
She lived a happier and healthier life than any dog that I have known. She lived a long life, loved her family, and liked most strangers (unless they were riding bikes).

As hard as today is, we both know there was nothing to regret about her life - dogs dont do that! The memories you have are good ones & those are what we all have when we lose our dogs, horses, cats or any animal we care for. They are family members as much as our human ones.
Their lives are so much shorter than ours - doesnt seem fair, does it?
