Last night our Babs was hit by a car and killed. She died within a few minutes so she didn't suffer. It was an accident, our son in law Steve had just arrived and George and Babs went out to meet him and their two dogs. Their dog Chelsea ran into the road and Babs chased her. Chelsea never runs off so it's a mystery why she did last night. We only had Babs for 4 months but she had instantly become a beloved member of our family and we dearly miss her.

Lynn and George... I'm so sorry to hear about Babs. That's terrible news. I'm sure you will miss her very much. It's amazing how much they can change your life in such a short time.

Lynn & George. Carol & I are so sad to hear this news. Take some comfort in knowing that you gave her 4 very happy months. We know how sad this leaves you.

We are also very sorry, but fortunate we got to meet her at the spring rally. She was so calm, and going to be such a mice pet.

Dear George and Lynn, as doggie people we know you pain. We always suggest a book called All Dogs Go to Heaven by Katherin Ryan to all our dog friends who have lost their buddy.
Be well.
