RIP Tanner 1987 - July 13, 2004
This morning, at approx 8:15 am today, I let my funny little toy poodle,
Tanner, go. It was an excruciating decision, but he'd stopped eating completely (not even cat food, usually his favorite), was down to skin and bones and could hardly stand. I'd been praying he'd go quietly on his own, but it was not to be. I met Tanner on October 9, 1999, after answering an ad on http://www.petfinder.org. He was found, sick and starving, and with a BB embedded in his tail, wandering down a freeway in Montana: the wonderful Brenda of the Rimrock Humane Society took him from a shelter, nursed him back to health, then sent him to Tiny Tails Rescue of Seattle. The equally wonderful Susan of Tiny Tails was kind enough to let him come live with me. He was sweet, funny and cuddly, although his temper got shorter and shorter as he grew older. He was deaf, blind in one eye, toothless and had a bad back, but had an incredible spirit.
