They've been in good health, the male had some hip issues and my girl was healthy as can be, till 2 days ago. She started stumbling around and unable to walk very well. We hope it's an ear infection, she seems to be getting better, I hope so.

I'm not good at goodbyes. And I know that others have recently experienced untold horror, with sons, daughters, babies and grandparents cruelly killed but my dog is a family member and life comes at you fast, love those near you while you can.
