My wheel dog ( the one nearest the sled ) had not felt well the last couple of days, this morning I got up to find he had passed away sometime in the night. Ivory was about 14 yrs old and had been playing just last week like he was 2..He was big and goofy but a pro in his job. He liked to eat mittens and wash your face with his big tongue..I'm going to miss the big lug.. ![[Linked Image]](http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b144/cavscoutmom/1AC96C33-DF02-49AA-AFE5-74ADF5A47034-31759-00001377DCF090B7_zps2ea119c1.jpg) Looking majestic ![[Linked Image]](http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b144/cavscoutmom/E2CA84EC-A091-4EFD-8CE7-E29F3AEE2779-31759-00001377D4C854CB_zpsccbea594.jpg) Leaping with joy last winter ![[Linked Image]](http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b144/cavscoutmom/D74AE1EB-C018-453F-A316-90DDE708398D-31759-00001377C258F5AB_zpse0fd04ce.jpg) Last week out playing in the swamp behind my cabin. ![[Linked Image]](http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b144/cavscoutmom/2CB3D1B9-41BF-4923-8A04-1205ABDDA367-31759-00001377B2643B92_zps4afa69a7.jpg) Ivory and Sam out exploring

Hi Annie,
Way too much pain and suffering on the fire today. Especially, for the 4 leggers.
Godspeed healing.

Looks like he had a great life, and probably gave you many memories to remind you of him, that's what makes dogs so special.
Godspeed Ivory

So sorry to hear this Annie. Man, it's so tough to lose such a loyal friend and companion. Sounds like he left some pretty big duties to be fulfilled. Here's to the hope he died peacefully and is now waiting for you on the other side of the bridge.

14 years of companionship is quite a blessing. You know he loved you very much.
RIP Ivory.
