Poor Puppies :(

I had a quick chat with my brother yesterday (the one in Alaska) and he informed me that two of the sled dogs have passed away. Nooooooo! I cried. But it's true.
The first was Blackie, a sweet old gal (?), who had the most gentile, understanding eyes. Apparently she had some sort of medical condition that would only worsen, and cause her discomfort, so her owner chose to put her down.
The second was Sleeper. He was a cuddly boy, with beautiful blue eyes, and and a goofy smile. He was killed by a run in with a moose who happened to get too close to the dog lot.
I only met them once, but I'll miss them just the same. So long pups.
