My lovable lab is gone - off to run with all those great dogs that have gone before her. I believe dogs (and other pets) go to heaven to wait for us, because God would not allow us to create that bond with something He created, and not give us the opportunity to see them on the other side.
So for now she's off running with her family members and enjoying good health once again. It's going to be a little lonely around here without you, Jez.
