Tim and I helped Sir D to the bridge this afternoon. We have been treating him for lameness since September. Our veterinary team confirmed the diagnosis this past Tuesday....the cancer was not operable and was quick moving.

 

We had a quiet day yesterday, he rested on his favorite bed and enjoyed a variety of treats. He was our Mr Food (hence the name Doof, which if food spelled backward). Tim even made lamb chop for him; Sir D thoroughly enjoyed it.

 

Doofie came to us through Greyhound Friends of NJ...he immediately settled in with Tessa and our cats. He loved to travel and let people watch him sleep at meet and greets. He loved to run in the yard with our Black Pack and was always the first in line for treats.

 

Sir D was a clever hound who knew how to play me like a piano. He used his golden eyes to give me this pitiful 'Hey lady, I am underfed look.' which he knew would end up with treats! He wanted nothing more than to please his humans.....he would climb up into the groomers tub and onto the groomers table for nail clipping.

 

He is in our hearts forever.

 

We love Sir D... run free without pain, big guy.....and send us a sign every know and then, ok?

I'm so very sorry to hear of the passing of your young & handsome boy Doof :cry1

His name made me laugh the first time I saw it, but from your posts I learned what a wonderful boy he was.

Sir Doof??? The maker of a thousand smiles? I can't stand this. I am so sorry. He will be sorely missed.

Missing my sweet girl Scout. My snuggler, my chow-hound, my kissy girl.
It never thunders at the Bridge, and your food bowl is ALWAYS filled.

So strange not living in Atty World. I was a love struck handmaiden to your every whim.
