Brad, I'm wondering how is the puppy doing? Any updates? I hope he gets a chance to let us know how the puppy is doing.

I would help in a heart beat. They're risking losing pay, rank and potentially confinement, extra duty and other unpleasantness. I looked the other way a lot, and "lost" a dog once, but I don't know that I would have flat-out jeopardized my career for a dog.

I'd be reduced to holding the herb in one hand while miming water coming out of my arse, and puking worms at the other. Oh!! OH!!! PLEASE let me get the clue "wormwood" at our next charades gathering....

Brad . Martin Webboard User Reg: 09-14-2005 Posts: 587 Loc: Ontario, Canada Offline	Hi Everyone, Oh my God! I cannot believe the amount of replies this has gotten. Thank you all so very much. I am unable to go back and read them all as our internet connection is less than stellar over here and i will time out before I even could. This is the first chance I have been able to get back to this in the last two days for reasons I cannot disclose; however, I felt that i should give an update for anyone who had read my question. To my broken heart, our little puppy did not make it. She was in such terrible shape that i couldn't even hide behind my denial anymore. We did our best to put her to sleep as peacefully as possible. Our platoon medic administered a large dose of morphine to her. I hope she is in a better place and can forgive us for failing her. Thank you all so very much for help. Sincerely, Brad

You did it out of your love and kindness. "It's better to be an optimist who is sometimes wrong than a pessimist who is always right"

You did the best you could, and I think honestly, she would have rather had the short life she did with you, than a long life of neglect and maltreatment on the outside. She died with friends, knowing she was cared for. Everyone has to go sometime, and she died in the best possible place she could have. You did good. Don't EVER think you didn't.
