Bye Luke

Keeping this blog post short and sweet.

This weekend we had to say goodbye to someone who has really changed our lives for the past 11 years.



I love you so much Luke.

You had so much personality and would always bring a smile to my face even though you didn't get the whole "fetch" concept. (as seen in exhibit A above, he wouldn't grasp the whole "hey, let's throw a ball, you bring it back, and we'll throw it again, and we'll repeat this 10 times over till you're tired"concept, instead to him it was more like "let me steal all 4 balls in the yard and hide them in my mouth so these stupid humans will stop taking them from me" haha)

Although we were able to finally get him to do "fetch", we just needed an extra ball or 12 on hand.

You don't understand how much an animal brings into your life until you finally have one.

So if you're wondering why I am email, twitter, facebook MIA thats why. Just need some time to myself now. Thanks for understanding everyone!

  14. Ugh, this is so terrible and I definitely feel for you. My dog is old and is probably going to have to be put down in the next few months. I hate thinking that, but he is losing his vision and strength, and the thought of him suffering is so much worse than losing him. All you can do is give them a happy life, which I'm sure your dog had. They really are a part of the family.<3

    P.S. my dog does the same thing when you try to play fetch with him. He never got the concept at all, haha
