good bye savannah

It seems another chapter of my life has in it's way come to a close. My
last guide dog, my wonderful girl savannah died on the 11th of this
month. Apparrently she had cancer and there was fluid building up
around her lungs and heart.

The email i got from peggy said that she was happy and hyper till the
last, she loved to play ball and have fun.

I've always missed her since she left, but in some ways i miss her more.
A large part of me wishes i'd kept her after retirement because i never
was able to get another dog, but at the same time, i know they took care
of her in a way i never could. They have a dog for her to play with, and
she'll be missed greatly by their dog willow and bob and peggy.

I'll always miss her and i hope one day maybe I'll have another shephard
again, guide dog or pet. No dog can replace her, but shephards are
wonderful dogs.:)
