Sorry to hear this Tom. Our old lab is going to be 12 years old in a couple of months and do not look forward to going through his departure.

Just saw this Tom - very sorry to hear this news. Etta will be on my mind with a glass of Buffalo Trace a bit later this evening.

Gentlemen thank you all again for your thoughts.....it has been a loooong weekend.
I've had to put down four dogs in my life, and for reasons I'm not able to define, this one was the toughest....
Thank you all again.

Tom,
I just found this. The last time I saw Etta I knew this was coming soon and knew it would be tough for you. Etta was your "little girl", more dependent on you than the others, in a good way. And somehow it hurts more to lose one like her. Don't ask me how I know........
My best wishes to you,
Chuck

Are Ingwedogs border crossed with blue healer?
Ingwedog I was a cross between Australian Shepherd and Border Collie, she was wicked smart and was like a hairy little extension of me, personality wise. Ingwedog II, was pure bred Border Collie....granted, an odd looking one, and a big one, over the breed standard, in her prime she weighed 58 pounds. Likewise wicked scary smart,but she awaited instruction before using her smarts,the first dog took it upon herself..... Even with Rommel here, the house sure seems empty. Lord, I LOVE borders- the most intelligent breed that exists, IMO. However, I hate being out-smarted by a dog 
I've always been a curmudgeon - now I'm an old curmudgeon.
