I had to put down my best friend Boots a little over 5 years ago. I didn't get another dog until just shortly before Christmas. Interestingly enough, Daisy is a yellow lab. It took me five years of mourning before I could even consider getting another dog. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers Dave; and you can come over and throw the ball for Daisy or take her for a walk whenever you want Dave! I'm more than glad to share her with you.
