Well, as many of you remember Dakota was diagnosed with Bone Cancer on Sept 10th and given 2-3 weeks to live. He made it 4 months with us but we had to put him to sleep this past Friday. It wasn't easy but it was definitely time. He was very spoiled the past 4 months of his life with gourmet dinners, bones galore, lots of attention, and many walks. We miss him very much as he was a huge part of our family. There weren't many things that we did without him if we could help it. He was an amazing dog with a wonderful disposition and we grew very attached to him. I remember when we first got him most peoples reaction was negative toward his breed but he turned out to more well mannered then most labs I know. Anyway I can't say enough about him we loved him. The kids were told the night before we took him in that he would not be coming home but the next day when Nojah got home he had a hard time with it. I don't think he really understood and Alexyss thinks he is still at the vet no matter how many times we tell her. Anyway we are doing ok now and will now focus our attention to sculpting our sweet little myah into as wonderful of a dog/companion as Dakota was. She is 21 weeks old and 50 lbs now.

Oh I'm sorry that you had to put him down. That is so hard. My parents had to do that to our dog when lloyd & I were first married, I cried for I think 2 days. It was so hard. I understand.

I'm so sorry... Dakota was one of the nicest dogs I've ever encountered. I will remember him fondly. Good luck with Myah. I'm just thinking though about how you told me about a time that Toby called her in and she turned her back on him. So I really mean what I said... Good LUCK! :)
That is tough! So sorry for your loss.
