Buddy the Dachshund that I rescued almost three years ago from a

> When Buddy came to out house he had never been out of his little pen
> they kept him in..he was just a stud dog. Used to sire litter after
> litter of puppies. I traced it back through AKC and he has sired close
> to 30 litters !
> Here at our house he has learned you get better things to eat than
> many
> three day old bread and such. You get clean water,a clean place to
> eliminate a soft bed to sleep and most of all respect and true love.
> That is what makes it so hard to say goodbye. It seems as though

> time has flown by and he hasn't had near enough of the 'good life'.
> Sometimes life can turn bitter and hateful and I guess this is just
> another one of those times.
> Please say a prayer for his passing and the human that loves him
> endlessly.I have had to put dogs to slumber before but this is one of
> those you can hardly bear to even think of it.
> The vet we use said put him down nearly 4 months ago but he wasn't

> Tomorrow we make that journey of sorrows unless the Lord graciously

> Thanks for letting me vent....the pain is just too great. It won't
