A sad week at our house

This has been a very hard week at our house. Last Saturday Tanner had to put his dog Drifter to sleep after sustaining injuries he would not be able to recover from. Drifter was a wonderful dog who loved to go to the farm and work all day. What a great companion during long days and nights at work. Our house seems very empty without him and he is truly missed. Then on Thursday my old border collie Morgan had to be put to sleep. She had cancer and during the last 2 weeks it spread throughout her body making her very sick and unable to move easily. I had that dog since 7th grade and had a lot of good memories with her. She was a champion 4-H show dog, delivered 2 litters of puppies and never tired of playing fetch. Although she lived at my parents house still she was still my dog and I miss her terribly. I can not remember a time when I did not have a dog at my house and it is a very strange and a little bit lonely feeling. While we are not interested in getting another dog at this time we look forward to the day when we welcome another 4 legged member into our family.
