My favorite Puppy’s gone… sniff sniff. My Mom called me early this morning sadly gave me the bad news. Roxy died this morning – our 90lb Rottweiler lapdog. The last dog at home that still remembers me. My Mom lost her mother a few years before and this loss is a big one. Roxy was a big goofball of a dog, flopping around everywhere and just a general lovable attitude. I wish I could be there for you Mom, I know it’s hard.

Roxy’s stomach turned just like her mothers and though it had happened before and she made it this time was one too many. We loved you Roxy – you were my favorite for sure. Always licking the crap out of me and always happy to see me. I’m going to miss you.

The new puppy Buckles I’m sure barely remembers me from my trip back home in July. Now poor little Buckles is also at a loss. No big dog to play with or follow around.
