pigdog's revival

i think i can safely say right now that pigdog is experiencing some kind of health revival.  she is doing much better now.  the vet really did not know what would happen.  i was preparing myself for the worst, of course.  but i think her quality of life is much better!  yay!  we love her so much.  

sweet pigdog

my dear sweet pigdog had a stroke last night.  i am really torn up about it and am having to make the decision of what to do about her.  she has been patrick's dog for over 12 years and mine for over 7 years.  she is the perfect dog.  she has been such a fantastic traveling companion, seeing most of the united states with us on our crazy travels.  everyone that we know or meet along the way has seen the value in her.  she came into our lives as a stray looking for a good home and a little love and attention, when she chose to have her puppies under patrick's cabin many years ago.  they have a deep connection.  there will never be another pigdog.
