Long Live the King



Jack was a dear friend of Emily's from our early days in the neighborhood. He was the lawnmower man, with a hilarious sort of panting that could be heard all the time. He was always smiling even the last time I saw him, just a day before he died. He is already sorely missed.

  3. We will miss that wide-eyed, panting, circling dog. He was a husky for the ages!

  4. yeah...was totally tipsy when I tried to comment. Just wanted to really say that it's amazing the footprints that animals leave on our hearts. It is a beautiful post in honor of what I'm sure was a beautiful dog.
