Well it’s just me and my gay dog now.

We buried our oldest dog Sundance a couple of days ago it was sad but good at the same time (he was suffering from old age). Sundance did a lot of cool stuff in his life – he fathered a liter and one of the pups went to a woman that was trying to beat a coke addiction and it worked she now owes a window washing business. He helped keep me out of jail and protected me from bears when I grew ganja in the bush but the coolest thing was stopping my 2 sons from punching it out.
When my boys were in their late teens they were really getting on each others nerves and I starting fearing that the day would come when they would get in a brawl. When that day came I was about a 2 minute run away and as I was running towards then I could see then using their skills by throwing punches to find a weakness or cause an opening and I stated having second thoughts about getting in the middle because at that time - I was also getting on their nerves so the 3 of us could be fighting. Then I noticed that when one boy through a punch Sundance would bark at him for trying to hurt some one he was protective of – then when the other boy through a punch Sundance would do the same and he keep doing it ever time and he was going nuts with frustration trying to protect them both.
When I got next to them – I said look what your doing to Sundance – they looked and it knocked them out because they knew they were hurting Sundance so they went to their corners and Sundance kept going back and forth between them making sure they were Ok and eventually the boys kissed and made up and took Sundance for a walk and smoked the peace pipe. As far as only having a gay dog now it’s cool he is a loyal dog and protective he just thinks girl dogs are uckey. Cheers!

Cool story! So share a pic of them grave?

I should of took a picture of the empty grave and the piles of dirt – it was about 8 hours of digging and picking. But it could have been a lot worse there was a huge maple tree close to the spot and I was figuring I would be running into some big roots but I got lucky and there were only a few roots that I could cut with hand clippers.
I did get a couple bits of unexpected comfort – one was in the name of the vet that came to the house to put Sundance down it was Doctor MaryJane I found it appropriate plus she helped me get Sundance to and into the hole.
The other bit of unexpected comfort came from 2 old wooden speaker boxes that Ted gave me 14 years ago and he made me promise that I would keep them forever. But I turned them into flower boxes and put them near Sundance’s grave which I think was very appropriate because Ted was Sundance’s original owner.
14 years ago Ted’s house got robbed and he decided it was time to get a new dog so we said we would find him a good free dog and found him Sundance but a few months later Ted’s health started to decline and he couldn’t properly take care of a dog so he asked us to take Sundance.
The day Ted died I am pretty sure his spirit came here to throw a few sticks to Sundance because a couple times it looked like Sundance was playing fetch with the invisible man and he would run in the tree line then come out with his tail wagging like crazy.
Going to add that my son’s eventually found out who robbed Ted and they made it clear that it better not happen again.
When the flowers are growing nice I will share a pitcher of the grave.
Cheers!
