Yvette,
if you've read my latest post, you know I understand completely. Juba was a beautiful dog. And sometimes, quick is better even if it hurts a lot.

My hope is that Max will take the strength that Juba gave him and hold it for his own. Dogs are very resilient. They take behavioral cues from their alphas and make them their own. I'll pray that Max will do the same.

And for you, I wish you strength. Juba went swiftly. That was a gift. You may not realize it right now but in time you will. My very best wishes for you and your family.

Jim
