I met Gator when he was along in years -- yes, a beautiful dog. And under his breath I could swear I heard him mouth the words "Kirby Puckett."Jeffrey Williushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02748080134354732541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2037880479077170696.post-50409398648045237272016-05-31T15:32:59.767-05:002016-05-31T15:32:59.767-05:00Jeff: We had a cocker spaniel for about 15 years ...Jeff: We had a cocker spaniel for about 15 years when the kids were young. Gator. I remember your "Thaber." Our dog was a gorgeous dog who could run like the wind, as a youth. Black and white. He was neutered but he retained a little bit of territoriality. On our bed, if I pushed him away from Ronni, he's growl. He bit me once, but I forgave him because I sort of scared him accidentally and he reacted like a dog.<br />I enjoyed your story her about your dogs and your wives. I'm glad that Sally and Abby filled the bill for you. Abby was obviously a part of Red Sox nation, as David Ortiz joined the Red Sox and became the greatest DH of all time. <br />ChasAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2037880479077170696.post-31508536368273927282016-05-14T13:21:54.563-05:002016-05-14T13:21:54.563-05:00Just one and she's enough.

My first dog was a chocolate lab and although it´s been 30 years since she passed, I still get choked up when I see one that looks like her. Dogs are much different than cats - and I´m not sure my heart´s up to losing another dog, even though the years of love and devotion would be welcome. It takes courage to love.
