That is heartbreaking. I'm sorry their time together was so very short.

Uh, hi guys. You know, I just returned Idiocracy to Netflix. I liked it, but not as much as I liked Office Space.
Oh, Nora, puppy death is always sad. Man.
Hey Holli!
Nora, you came in her to post a dying puppy story? Do you think that showed discretion? Are you trying to personally destroy all happiness and/or the weekend?
Good to know, Holli. Although Office Space has grown on me over the years.
I just read a long article about designer dogs and puppy mills and how purebreds are like ticking genetic timebombs, too, so I am sort of concerned about the fate of doggykind right now.
Oh Nora, I am sorry about their dog.
My parent's have had two of their Goldens that have ended up with really aggressive tumors. And Max was fairly young. I wonder if it is something the breed is prone to or just coincidence.
Aw, that's so sad. Goldens are such sweet dogs.
Oh, wasn't that awful, Hil?
Except for that one line from that breeder woman who was concerned that if something wasn't done "anyone could breed any two kinds together and call it a dog."
"and call it a dog"?? As opposed to what? Suddenly it's a lemur?
Here's the actual quote, from an AKC spokeswoman:
It will not be registering Poovanese or Cavoodles any time soon. “What would our registration stand for then?” a spokeswoman told me. “Anyone could make up a dog and say, ‘This is a dog!’ ”
Also, since I suck and forgot too say, poor baby, and poor friend-of-Nora.
