The family of my brother Jon has included Jon, his wife Angela, teenage daughter Renee, baby daughter Callie. and two dogs-- a Rottweiler named Gracie, and Daisy.
Jon and Angela rescued Daisy when they lived in Florida. Someone had chained one of her hind legs to a tree in the forest and left her there. She had a slight limp the rest of her life. A yellow Lab/terrier mix, Daisy was a beautiful, sweet, paitent dog. She had wonderful brown eyes.
Daisy was getting old, though-- Renee had grown up with her. Recently, she had been ill, stopped eating, and in obvious pain. The day before Thanksgiving Angela and Renee took Daisy to the vet and had her put down rather than let her suffer. Her gentle presence will be missed by those who loved her.
