Sadly, Crosby's friend Ike, age 7.5, had to be put to sleep today due to excessive brain seizures. We have a long friendship with this family and their dogs. They guided us through our first puppy, even named him (Bear). Crosby and Ike have a history of swimming and playing together--or should I say beside each other. Ike was obsessed with frisbees; Crosby with tennis balls. They could play for hours, totally ignoring each other, but they were a mini pack. They've done many sleepovers. They were a year apart, Ike being older.

I am just in tears. We knew he was ailing, but this was a shock. No dog should die that young. Here is a pic of them. Ike is on the right. Rest in peace, Ike.
