Goodbye Old Friend...

Baxter, our 14 year old Beagle has gone to be the Lord at the end of July.  He started to have liver complications and was not eating or drinking.  He began going to the bathroom in the house and the whites of his eyes were turning yellow. 

As a family we decided it was time for him to be put to sleep.  Richard took him on Saturday, July 26 at 7:30am.  Richard said that Baxter lost almost 10 pounds and was very dehydrated. Baxter went very peacefully and it was over pretty quick.  The vet would spread his ashes over a peace of land they own. 

When Richard came home we both had a good cry.  It was bitter sweet because he was the last of the three animals we had when we first dated.  We are welcoming the freedom of having no animals but will miss him dearly.

Goodbye Baxter and see you another day...
