We took Duke, Jake, and Tazz to be boarded overnight, they have boarded
there many times before, but last week something went wrong. Duke suffered
some sort of stroke. He was holding his head tilted to the right and showed
a distinct weakness on the right side, A lot of falling and unable to keep
his balance, as well as seizure activity and drooling. We watched and
worked with him all weekend, but he became increasingly disoriented to the
point of not recognizing where or who we were. Sadly we came to the
realization that the wonderful clown-dog we loved was gone. We prayed and
took him to the vet together. He really was a wonderful, funny, clever and
loving dog. We miss him.

I'm so sorry. They never live long enough anyhow, and that's
just not enough time with you. I hope you have many memories of
him to treasure.

I'm so sorry Lois. You've told some great Duke stories and I'll
miss them and him.

Lois, I am so sorry for your loss. Please accept my most sincere
condolences. Nothing one can say at a time like this, except we understand
your loss and will keep you in our thoughts. I will light my candle tonight
in memory of Duke.

best,
