~ We weep with you

Hi this is Ron Weatherman now in Mesquite, Nevada. 

On December 15th at 5:15 in the morning Sadie passed in my arms.  She had come into the bedroom and laid on her bed next to me.  She began breathing fast.  I got up and held her in my arms as she gasped her last breath.  I lost my best, most loving friend ever right then. 

Nothing has ever hit us harder than losing her.  She was 11 and a half years old and large for the breed.  49 inches tall and weighing in at 95 that was all muscle.  She was covered with large tumors in the last year and was having a little difficulty getting up.  Her hind legs would hardly lift her.  We could see the end was near and thankful I guess that she went so easily.  

Want to thank you for her, she was one of your best.  She and I were inseparable for her whole life, spending all our time every day together.  We miss her terribly.    Sincerely Ron and Sandy Weatherman in Sadie’s memory.

We remember so vividly how Sadie came in like a storm. It might have been a push for you to get her raised, but you did it. Cliff helped you achieve the swim–possibly, that was a turning point. She adapted to life as it changed--including golf. Thank you for all you did for and with her–what an extraordinary life you shared. No words will ever cover this loss, but we send our condolences.
