You're right , James . Sometimes doing the RIGHT thing isn't always the EASIEST thing .

SVT24 - that's a really good-looking Shep ya got there . I can remember when Duke was just a clumsy little character . I don't have a lot of pictures of him growing up , unfortunately . It's just one of those things you take for granted , I guess ... that he'll always be there , or I'll take his picture tomorrow . Until tomorrow comes & he's not there . I did , however come across THIS PICTURE of him at about 4 months old . You can see how much darker he was when we first got him . He was a cutie !

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one missing his buddy . Sorry to hear 'bout everyone elses losses through the years ...
