Replying to: lilbluewgn02 (Jun 22, 2009 5:02 pm) So sorry to hear this Serge. We went through the same thing with Annie, our Golden, last November. It's really a tough thing to do and deal with. Bob

Replying to: lilbluewgn02 (Jun 22, 2009 5:02 pm) Very sorry, Serge. Losing Hadji was tough for me. I still have flashbacks and see his "ghost", or at least feel like he's still present at home once in a while. It's a strange feeling, and I miss him. Once a dog person, always a dog person.

Now that I've got one though, I have to confess that it's convenient at times The hill holder shouldn't be causing you to stall, maybe it just needs a little adjustment? -Frank

Replying to: lilbluewgn02 (Jun 22, 2009 5:02 pm) Sege- Sorry to hear about Dina. Now I feel bad for yelling at Sabrina (our 90lb chocolate lab) last night after she got into some mischief. I'll have to give her a big hug to let her know she's still loved. -Frank

She is still not eating. I got some Chinese herbs from someone who treated their dog's cancer with them...he lived on for another 2 years. I hold her jaws open and Michael puts them in the back of her mouth. We have also been feeding her a whey liquid protein mix and she gets a vitamin B-12 shot every 4 days to increase her appetite. Tomorrow morning, we have an appointment with a holistic vet in Ft. Lauderdale; it is the last thing I can think of to improve her health; I don't know if it is too late; a lot of my dog owner friends have used Eastern medicine with great success for treating cancer in their pets. I will keep you all posted.

#31156 of 31385 excitement by ladywclass Jul 13, 2009 (5:05 am)
Visiting friends just north of Houston - Daughter and her family were here to swim and visit along with another friend I worked with for years near here. Friends' daughters and a couple of their grandchildren also here. The friends own 33 acres which backs up to the San Jacinto River. At the river there is an observation deck on the bank which has an overlook of about 25-30 feet above the riverbed. Daughter and her family and friends' daughters walked to the river. Daughter was taking pictures as they went. A Piper Cub flew over from the small airfield nearby. The plane flew down low to the river and daughter was still taking pictures. They thought the plane would turn and come back and she was waiting to take more pics of it. Then they heard a BAM and then silence. Friends' daughters ran to the river. One has some medical training. My daughter hustled her kids back to the house. Next thing you know we had helicopters, ambulances, fire trucks, etc. swarming out here in the woods. It was about 7:30 in the evening. At least someone saw what happened and got help quickly because this is a REMOTE area and had the plane not been seen it may not have been known for quite awhile that it had crashed. The plane may have had some engine troubles and the pilot may have been trying to land on the flat bank next to the river. At any rate, he caught some low power lines over the river which flipped the plane upside down and straight to the ground. The pilot was taken out in an ambulance. His son was taken out by helicopter. The news stories I can find this morning say that they have cuts and bruises, but otherwise are fine. Replies to this message: rsholland (Jul 13, 2009 5:41 am)

Replying to: ladywclass (Jul 13, 2009 5:05 am) I remember, years ago—like when I was in college, I was with some friends traveling up the NJ turnpike, when I happened glance over to my left only to see a small plane in the distance sputter (fly erratically) and then suddenly dive nose-first towards the earth. Didn't see the crash, nor did I ever see anything in the paper or on the news about it. Bob
