In the last seven years....
2013.... Sparky, a little 8lb Jack Russel mix, 13 yo
2014.... Blue, a mini-weiner dog, 15 yo
2016.... Tarna, the heeler mutt in my avatar, best dog I'll ever own, 14 yo
2019.... Dakota, a heeler x stumpy tailed cattle dog mix, 14 yo

We outlive our dogs its true, but they take whole eras of our lives with them.
