Bud at the dog park 2014 |
As
active
outdoor people, our dogs represent our lifestyle and
personality. For the past year we have had to slow down since Bud
could not keep up due to his cancer and age. Last year the canine
oncologist gave him a few months of life without their treatment, and well over a year later he is still our traveling companion. We are loyal to
Bud as
he is loyal to us.
Life
with Bud has been filled with funny, frustrating, loving, joyous,
heroic, and sad memories. Bud's whole life with us (12 years with
me) has been a Bucket List. From hiking in the snowy mountains of
Colorado and New Mexico and the deserts of Arizona and west Texas to the beaches of the Atlantic Ocean and the
Gulf of Mexico Bud has seen more and done more than most. The funny and loving memories with Bud are
the ones that I cling to keep me happy.
