teri_d Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Win more than lived up to his name as an awesome racer.....but he was even better at being a best buddy in his retirement. from the moment in january of 2006 when he set eyes on us, he knew he was destined to be a member of our family...yes, he truly chose us (just ask teddy!!) to those that knew him before we did, a huge thanks for going above and beyond to get this broken legged boy from wheeling to HHGA so he could find a family. win was perfect except for the stubborn streak and that poop eating thing. win loved life, roaching, treats, walks, stuffies, his bed, doing zoomies, air snapping, people, but most of all win loved us with all of his big heart - and, of course, we loved him with all of ours in return. diagnosed with osteo in his "good" back leg on 6/28, and unable to bear total weight on either back leg, there was nothing that could be done besides stay with him and love him till the end.............you'll be in our hearts forever -- the walk was truly not long enough with you, win.
