On February 1 we had to let go of our big, goofy guy, Toby(Hallo Mon Amour). He had turned twelve on 1/6. Toby entered our hearts and home a little less than two and a half years ago after having lived in NY for seven years. When he moved in he arrived with five bags of his "stuff" including a Boston Red Sox blanket but we like to think he was cheering for the NY Mets. He certainly saw them enough from his vantage point on the couch!
For the time he was here he loved to chase our neighbor's beagle up and down our fence line. The neighbor 's Vet wanted to know how their beagle was in such good shape, they gave that credit to Toby.
Due to arthritis and age Toby was slowing down a bit and we noticed he was ignoring the beagle but a few days before the first he was running around the yard with Beaker and Tara Knowles(our foster). Friday he could not put any weight on his right front leg and there was no good news from the Vet. So now he is at the Rainbow Bridge with Oreo, Wonder. Sandy, Minnie and Pixie(IG) and I wonder how many beagles he is running with.
