Some on here will understand this post.
We moved here with 7 rescued mutts. Lost one the first week here to bone cancer. Two last January, one to cancer and the other to a sudden stroke two weeks later. The oldest, Marlowe left us today.
He was a toothless 18 and hung in like a trooper. His health went down hill really fast. We knew it was time when he could not get up on his own and refused a packet of salmon.
He was my Father-in-law's dog. After his suicide someone asked what we were doing with "the dog". My response was "Tiffany's little brother is coming home with us". Tiffany is my wife and we always joked that her father treated the dog better than his kids. When my brother in law brought his soon to be wife home to meet us last year Marlow was introduced by him as "This is my little brother, Marlowe".
He will be cremated and scattered with her father's ashes which was one of my father-in-laws last requests.
This is a mean start to 2012
