Summer 2010 Update: Magic lost his tail, Sam was lost (and not found alive), and to top off the worst summer of my life, Decker got beat and ended up with a dislocated elbow.  She now has a permanent limp and has moved into the StinkyPup Ranch. She’s very shy and doesn’t come out much except for dinner and an occasional walk. With a lot of love, hopefully she’ll integrate with her inside brothers and sisters.

Epilogue: August 9, 2012
Today we put Decker down. Although she still went on walks, she wasn’t eating. Decker didn’t eat for 5 days, ate for 3, and then started another fast. The tumor on her snout was huge and still growing.

Decker was a very sweet and beautiful girl. When she was a working dog, she ran in lead. When she was a pet dog, she had her own room and wasn’t a needy girl. We will miss her.
