I wanted to tell you all how much I have appreciated you thoughtfulness and advice over the years. Your support of me when I had a sick or injured hound and the outpouring of sympathy when I have had a hound make the trip to the bridge. 2 weeks ago I went to the ER thinking I was having a pulled muscle spasm only to find out that I needed angioplasty and 2 stents in my heart. ME who never had high blood pressure, never really sic k. Wow what a surprise!!! I am bringing this to your attention not for sympathy ( I will be fine- if I can just stay on the cardboard diet) but to bring to your attention that sometimes things like an annoy or maddening post to the drool is actually not all that important. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>As for the moderators , they are needed and appreciated very much. Thanks for all that you do. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Don’t mean for this to be preachy just an observance. Again thanks to all of you who have helped me in the past. Hope the Drool survives as I am sure it will. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Shirley Mueller<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Mom to <br>Sally belle and Gordy <o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
