eastcoast 4,499 Posted July 22 Report Share Posted July 22 A sad topic but illustrated with beautiful pictures. Seeing your Gypsy from a pup, developing into an adult and then into dotage, with a loving bairn growing with her throughout the years. Very poignant. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
