Mugsy
Our friends had to put down Mugsy this past weekend. He had been diagnosed with congestive heart failure and went down hill quickly. He had been their dog for over 10 years! And he was a little bit ours too. I loved "dogsitting" him. He was such a sweet dog and so good with the kids--even when they (she) wasn't so good to him. I cried; C cried; K girl said "oh" and went to play. Typical. My friend said her kids are having a tough time, so they went and bought them rabbits. Does that mean I have to "rabbit sit"? We shall see.
BTW: we didn't tell our kids that our friends had "put him down"--didn't want to have to explain that. We just said Mugsy died.

oh, i'm so sorry. i think you did right telling the kids he died, cause he did!
I totally understand not telling your kids that Mugsy was "put down"...we didn't tell my girls that our Daisy was "put down." Just that she got real sick and died. It's so sad. :(
