Itchy

Our lovely dog Itchy had a seizure right after dinner. I know that he is about twenty years old and is blind, deaf, achy, and cranky, so he doesn't have too long to live. But still, I am so upset at the thought of him dying. He is such a great dog and we all love him. He has arthritis pretty bad and can no longer go on walks. For awhile we took him in the wagon, but he didn't seem to like that much. He will still faithfully accompany me to the mail box even though it takes him twenty minutes to get back. Plus, he likes me best - and who doesn't like to be loved best? He seems to have recovered okay tonight and is up and walking again. I am not particularly sentimental about animals, but I really love this dog and I am really going to miss him.
