So, Mallory (our oldest dog) hasn't been doing good for awhile. We've had her for at least ten, if not more years. Her eye sight has been going, her joints are getting old... It just hasn't been an easy year or so with her.
Well, as it turns out, Dad had to carry her into the house last night. And,w hen I came home from work tongiht, Dad was out trying to find her and had to carry her in tonight too.
So, he's calling the vet tomorrow and having her put down. I know it's time, and she's lived a nice and long life. But still, we've had her since I was a kid. It's like another whole piece of my childhood that's gone.... It's sad... I was getting all teary-eyed when we were talking about it, and I'm sure I'll get teary eyed tomorrow. And, my parents are going out of town, so I'll be staying in their room with the dogs and I'm sure I'll try and figure out where Mallory is the entire weekend....
It's just sad.. another piece of my childhood is gone...
