Not fair.

My sister Natasha (Tye)and I both got puppies around the same time-Hudson (11months) and Winston (9months). They've "grown up" together. The thing is I went through phases of wanting to sell mine off and on for various reasons, Tye never has-she loved that dog ALOT. Today Winston got out (of her apt) and ran away, she looked for him for 3 hours before calling local shelters, she "found him" at one. Winston had been hit by a car and a family had dropped him off and gave the shelter as much money as they needed to try and save him. My sister got to the shelter and saw him and hyperventilated. There was no saving him-I won't go into details. If you've never owned a dog, you won't REALLY understand, but I just ask that you pray for her, she's a mess, I'm a mess, everyone that knew this sweet puppy is. It just sucks, I need to appreciate the fact that I even OWN a dog, they are such blessings.
We'll miss you Winston-aka "Bagel"

Sorry to hear that. I had a English Bulldog Pup that got hit about 10 years ago. He got loose and was running to me when I was out getting my mail. I was yelling for him to stop. It happened right in front of me. I haven't had a dog since then.

i will keep you all in my prayers.
