Goodbye My Friend

Ronin
2000-2012
This past Monday I had to put my sweet dog to sleep. He had arthritis in his hips and back and couln't get around very well. We had to pick him up off the floor when he wanted to get up and had to hold him up so he could eat. It was the hardest thing I've every had to do and I miss him terribly.
