Harley. He was hit on the highway by a vechicle when he was a pup. He had some damage to his jaw and nasal area, broke bone in a back leg, etc. He was real lucky to have survived. And because of his injuries he snores real loud.

Hi, I wanted to reinstate this but take small portions out. I forgot to uncheck a box. I deleted much more than I wanted to. Sorry but most past page 4 are gone.

Let's continue and please re-enter what's appropriate.

I had a pet spider. Not the kind you keep in a tank but one that lived in the window in my garage. I used to catch flies and throw them in her web. That's why she was a pet. I figure any critter you care for and provides pleasure can be called a pet.

My loving Golden retriever "Delilah" just died a few days ago. She was almost 12 years old, and never hurt anyone. So patient, full of love, and eager to please. I am still in Ohio for another week and when I left Illinois in January, I held her, looked her in the eyes, and told her to not go anywhere until I got back. I guess we both knew what was coming. I really wanted to be there for her, to take her to the stream one last time, to carry her outside to smell the smells and enjoy the splendors of the natural world. But I wasn't there. Damn I miss her so much. [][][]

Here is part of her helping my father and i dig for bottles several years ago:

Delilah watching my dad pull out a local soda. (I know i have some better pictures somewhere)

A very close personal friend (also deceased []) once said, in reference to my family dog, that "This is the only kind of true love that money can buy". I couldn't agree more. Stuff like this makes me wish I could believe in a conscious afterlife. Not because I am afraid of death, but because I can't deal very well with the loss of loved ones. At least in memory they continue to live on.

to take her to the stream one last time,

That is sad, I'm sorry for the loss. A good pet is like a relative (maybe better).
I lost my Shelby when one morning he still hadn't come home. It was a few hours in the morning I heard him crying. He had collapsed in the stream and there was nothing I could do. Well, not nothing, I tried to warm him and comfort him but I had to have him put down. I did find a piece of stone and carved his name in it. He's still there when I get back to Maine.
Man I miss him, I even miss him pissing me off.

Here is Dylan. He used to be the head of security, but he is 14 now. Retirement is treating him well. This was him in the holiday spirit!
