Old Friends

 

Sad to say goodbye to our best friend Ziggy. She went to sleep for the final time today and we can't imagine life without her. Ziggy had turned 14 on January 2 which made her very old for a Lab. She came to live with us when she was only 6 weeks old and was our constant companion. Ziggy came to work with us every day and when we retired she became our traveling companion on all our RV trips. She logged over 70,000 miles visiting Alaska three times and many national parks. She always had a big smile for her human friends, but never liked dogs very much. She earned her pet therapy credentials and used to accompany me to nursing homes to visit. She was truly a character and a loyal companion. We know Ziggy is in doggy heaven chasing squirrels and maybe even climbing trees to finally catch one. She is out of pain and running free with her back legs working as well as when she was a pup. Thank you Ziggy for all the joy you brought to us and everyone who knew you. You are missed and will never be forgotten.
