At A Loss

Wednesday, September 21, 2005

Yesterday, Tuesday, September 20, we lost Shiner, our Clumber Spaniel, to heatstroke. We are heartbroken. Shiner was 6 years old.

Texas was not a friendly place for Shiner who often suffered in the Texas heat. We laid Shiner to rest with a few of his favorite things on Shannon's Dad's farm. Things just won't be the same without his "shouting" at us all the time, his piles of hair that build-up in the corners of the house, his slobber on the walls, his waiting by Chloe's high-chair for her to drop a Cheerio or let him lick the yogurt off her hands and his "bunny-hopping" to go and get his bone.

Shiner was our boy and we will miss him dearly.
