Bart now needs help getting up the deck steps. It didn't help that someone shot him in the hind quarters in 1998. He was the constant companion of my late boyfriend, who passed away in 2002. Curly is happy if he can find a slipper or shoe to carry around. I took him in one day before he was scheduled to go to the humane society.
I love my big brown doggies.
:-D :-D
Pretty babies. Did you ever find out who shot Bart? If it was not accidental, there are times that I'd just love to forget about Law and Order and give them a taste of their own medicine!
Bart was out on the deck with Charlie, who dozed off, Bart uncharacteriscally wandered off, and it was during deer hunting season. It was probably a neighbor, but I'll never know. Bart crawled up the driveway 17 days later, after we thought we'd never see him again.
