Tiger-pie Posted September 9, 2007 Author Posted September 9, 2007 (edited) Picture of Merlin on the fence above his grave, wearing his work clobber. Probably wondering if he should lick his balls while on duty... Edited September 9, 2007 by Tiger-pie

Tiger-pie Posted September 9, 2007 Author Posted September 9, 2007 Man, that choked me up about as bad as anything I've seen lately!Mike, that is why I injected a little humour in post five. Those of us who love animals can relate to the loss of a cherished pet, it must be just as painful for the handler of a dog who generally work as a team on a long term basis. Regards;Johnsy
