Nonie, Oh that is so hard. I understand the pain. I had an Ashley. She lived to 17. My Bubba was only 9, cancer of the liver. I do have some weeds, but have only treated once in almost 4 years. I do not like using chemicals and really try to avoid using them. So sorry about Ashlee. It helps me that I made Bubba a special web page and I have framed pics of pets... :'( This is my online memorial for my Bubba.
