[Dailydrool] I said my goodbyes

[Joffk at cs.com]

All,
It is with heavy heart that I must inform you that I said my goodbyes to 
Sherlock Holmes yesterday.  He stopped eating, was having trouble walking and 
generally just fading fast, so I sent him to the Bridge before he suffered.  
Sherlock taught me a lot.  He was my very first ever "official" rescue dog 
(BROOD) and first ever foster failure.  He lead the way for numerous other 
foster dogs, and was preceeded in his trip to the Bridge by Skeeter, Kirby 
and Waymon, not to mention some of the fosters he lived with that I lost track 
of.  He gave a lot to me and I thanked him for what he gave me in his life. 
 He was never a very loveable, cuddly hound, and was generally a curmudgeon 
from the get-go!  Despite all of that, somehow, he filled a hole in my 
heart and my spirit that no other dog could.  Thank you, ol' buddy, and BROOD, 
for adding a wonderful aspect to my life.
Joff, foodslave to:
Madelynne Maybelle Newby CGC TDI NAP AJP OAC OJC TN-N TG-N WV-N, Daisy Mae 
CGC TDI and the bloodhounds, Monroe and Sabrina, and the ATB gang, Hattie 
Mae, Waymon and Sherlock.
