Sorry to hear about your loss. Words can't really describe all the emotions of putting your best friend down. The only thing Brook and I hunted were steelhead. We chased 'em wherever they swam. I had first pick of 5 females and chose the runt. Probably not the wisest decision but she made it a pretty easy pick.

She went to work with me just about everyday since she was 7 weeks old until a couple months before I had to put her down (almost 12 years). January 2 of this year was the day.
