Brandy is gone.

Yesterday was a very bad day.  Brandy had not responded to treatment by the vet and Karen had to make the heart wrenching decision to put her down.  She went for a last visit and the always necessary paperwork.  Not sure how she managed but she did.  Got her a few chicken strips, her favorite snack.  

I only knew Brandy the last year and a half.   I have always liked dogs but never loved them, with Brandy it was different.  She was a great dog and a great companion for Karen.  I shed a few tears yesterday but nothing compared to Karen.  She is devastated.

Karen will miss her for a very long time.
