As many of you know, we had to put down a very special member of our family recently. Poor Robbie had a rough past month of not feeling very well. We didn't realize the severity of his condition even after taking him to the vet for a check up. His body finally couldn't take anymore and he had a major seizure that caused him to be unresponsive for at least 10 minutes. Mandi and I rushed him to the ER for pets and made the painstaking choice that he would be happier moving on. It has been a very lonely past 2 weeks. Not having him at the door to greet us home is heartbreaking. We recently were going through pictures and we were amazed at just how much he always with us. On our laps, in the car for a drive, at Grandma's and Grandpa's house (his favorite), camping trips, pretty much wherever we were. Leah still drops part of her meals on the floor for Robbie to come and enjoy. Here is to a best friend that we will forever miss, we love you Rob!!!
