vale to the dogs
Reading Jordon’s post today about his dog Elway having to be put down has me on the verge of tears. This week marks the anniversary of our own dog Romero having to be put down at the age of just 5, also due to cancer. We remember the date because it was the week of the Melbourne Cup Day holiday. We had a BBQ for the Cup and when Romero became suddenly ill the Friday following, we initially thought it was due to a friend innocently feeding him cooked bones after the BBQ.
We still miss him heaps.
But now our family is complete again, with our new son Toby passing his first experience of the group BBQ with flying colours. After spending the day being chased by a four year old child and shamelessly begging for cast offs from the table, he ended up like this.
