Sean,
I'm sorry for all of the loss of beloved pets that's happened in the
echo lately.  I know it's a part of life but it's one of the toughest things you have to deal with.  I've had to put down several pets in my life and then bury them out in the back 40.  It's always hard but they live on in your heart.
  Plus, you have the wonderful memories of each one...and that all of
them are waiting at the Rainbow Bridge for you. At least there, they
won't barf or poop on your shoes...and they will be eager for belly 
rubs. :) And, they won't have to worry about "tail sprains"...I heard
of one dog so happy that his owner had come back home from being away
so long, that he wagged his tail so hard, he sprained it!!
  I think the owner was a veteran...and THANK YOU to all those who have 
served their countries. I never would've passed the physical, as I had
poor eyesight for 40 years, and was born without arches in my feet.
