Talking Thanks Everyone!

Your kind words, thoughts and prayers really do help. Thank you. Mac was an amazing boy and it was so unfortunate how the end of his life played out. In one respect, knowing that the time was getting near to make this difficult decision allowed me to savor every extra minute that we were able to give him. He was such a joy and I feel blessed to have had such a fine dog. He is going to be missed for a very long time.

We can tell that Bailey has been missing our boy too. She has been a bit more apprehensive without the guidance of Mac, but each day she seems to be getting better. We are working on perfecting her recall and want to do some more socializing. She adores it when our son's dog comes to visit. They love to romp around and wrestle, which is something that Mac wasn't willing to do. Once we gain her a little more experience, I think we will get her a Cairn Terrier puppy, so she can have this kind of fun on a full time basis. Then Bailey can teach her sibling all the things that MacKinnon taught her. Overlapping dogs is a beautiful thing... I highly recommend it.

Thanks again for the kind words. I really appreciate the support. You guys are the best.
