After battling through multiple bouts of ailments, and simple age, we’re having to say goodbye to Sarah’s pet, our family dog, Sadie.
15 years of getting underfoot and nipping at everyone’s heels in order to herd us to whatever it was she decided we had to be. When she started showing problems with her hips, I started bending my rules about dogs in the bed and would pick her up so she’d still have her favorite spot.
I had to go to work today, but I did get to see her one last time and talk with her. For the first time in maybe 8 months, she recognized me and even wagged her tail.
Goodbye, Sadie. Thank you for the years. We’ll miss you.
Stay safe out there, folks.
