Guest Haggler Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 Sorry it happened. Once the dogs fails in a situation like that he has pretty much decided his own fate. It is the same decision any of us would have made. Still doesn't make it any easier. Good luck with your next earthworker. Haggler Quote Link to post
