Must be a bad time for me and dogs....adopted a dog we named Copper.  Turned out he not only had heartworms, but found out 4 months later he had severe diabetes.  He was losing weight like mad, so my dad and I made the difficult decision to put him down.  I felt I owed it to him to be there to the end.  It still hurts...physically too.

Still no job either, but have a couple petsitting gigs, so at least it gives me some dog food money for my rottie.  )
