It's been two days and it still hurts to say this, but Abbey has passed. She's been ill for a while, and I thought maybe we had it turned around, but liver/gallbladder/appendix issues finally took their toll. I've had many dogs before but Abbey was special to me as you may know, particularly since she's been to many, many crappie camps.

Here are some pics from those events:

She never met a member she did not love.

This last pic includes her four sons she had. We still have Pepper and Max, who are both helping me get through this. I never thought I'd be so attached to a dog. She's been with through a lot of travels over the years with me. It's been a fun run. Bye Abbey, see you in the big pond in the sky.
