On October 16, 2006, I had her put to sleep due to the pain she was suffering from spinal cancer. I would gladly have traded years of my life if they could have been added to hers. She was the dog nobody wanted, but I loved her more than most can imagine. Maybe it's pathological to love a dog like this: I've cried for her every day and I'm sure it won't get any easier. I have another dog now and I love her dearly, but Bailey will forever be in my memory. No one seems to know if there is an afterlife for dogs, but surely if one exists for man, then dogs, oftentimes more nobler than humans, deserve a place in that realm. I have her ashes (as well as those of Suzie, another beloved black lab of mine) and our co-mingled remains will be buried together one day. We are very lucky to have known and loved such fine friends. I had a chocolate lab and her name was Bailey.

He is a dog that I will never forget. I loved him so much and really did not know how much until this last week when the house has this real empty void. Thanks for your comment, I know you will keep Bailey in your memory forever. Love, Dad Sean,
