Mourning the Loss of a Friend - Blind Ambitions - Water fowling and dog training


Mourning the Loss of a Friend

I got some sad news last night, a buddy of mine lost his lab on the operating table yesterday.

As I understand, the dog had eaten some mulch and a piece had punctured her intestine. They couldn’t find anything on an X-Ray, so the decision was made to cut her open and take a look.

Once they found the mulch, the doctor removed 9 inches of intestine, and began to sew her back up. She never made it through the surgery.

I know how badly it feels to lose one, and Lil’ Bit was jsut an year and half old. I had Lil’ Bit to train her for a time, and she came into heat so she went home and we planned to get her back this spring.

Sometimes I think the world would be better if dogs outlived their owners.
