Unhappy Sadie Mae

For those of you that haven't met me and for those of you that have, you must know that I've been an animal lover specifically dogs all my life. On Thanksgiving Day of 2007 our beloved Irish Setter Scarlet crossed the Rainbow Bridge. With broken hearts we searched for another Irish Setter and found Sadie Mae that was 10 weeks old. Today while out running with her at the boat ramp parking area near our home she was struck & killed by a pickup truck. We've been here dozens of times to run and play and also launched the boat from there and took her fishing. She loved riding on the front deck of the boat flying down the Ohio River with her ears & tail blowing in the wind. Our hearts are broken. Losing 2 of my/our best friends in 15 months causes one to step back and appreciate all that we have around us. Some may say it's just a dog. For you animals lovers like Swrinfla, Rockinronda and others you know it's more than that. We had so hoped for everyone to see her and especially notice how far she'd come since her puppy antics, to go play with Prancer, and get barked at by the Nazi dogs. Maybe at the Rainbow Bridge but for now....
