Unfortunately time marches on and I have<br \/>lost all my canine companions and am now alone.&nbsp; I would miss them except<br \/>age has taken its toll on me as well and am not as playful as I was in the<br \/>early years.&nbsp; I ma blind, deaf, lost most of my teeth and have seizures, but<br \/>I still manage to find my way to the dinner bowl, my bed on a couch in a<br \/>bright and warm sun porch, and of course to any friendly hands willing to<br \/>give me attention. I just had a haircut last week and look like the puppy<br \/>that left Rattlebridge many moons ago. Keep up the good work and breed many<br \/>more puppies just like me&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;Love Dash <\/strong><\/font><\/em><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><strong><font size=\"3\">I am so touched by Dash&#8217;s note and know that I will see him again at the Rainbow Bridge someday.&nbsp; Stay happy and healthy, Dash.&nbsp; Thank you, Jim, for loving him so much.&nbsp; <\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><strong><font size=\"3\">Also, from Marilee Snyder, a wonderful p<\/font><\/strong><strong><font size=\"3\">icture of &#8220;Harley&#8221; (who really needs to drop a bit of weight!!! as Marilee knows.
