Sorry to hear about your little pups, Dave.
Hope Lulu pulls through ok.
Dogs are like part of the family. I remember when our dogs died, it was actually the first most heart breaking experience I had when I was little. I was only like 7 when our first dog died. That's when my Mom put me on her lap and told me about how little dogs go to heaven.
When was your B-day? Mine was April 3. Good for me, sad for my aunt as my close uncle died last year on my b-day.
