We miss you Brody!

Brody passed away on February 10, 2015 after a very brief illness!  He wasn't feeling well during the weekend and so on Monday, February 9 we took him to the vet.  We weren't sure what was bothering our buddy, but he wasn't eating and was quite lethargic!  The vet checked Brody out and found out he had a bladder infection!  We were thrilled to know that it was something treatable and went home with Brody, along with an antibiotic, pain meds, and some special food that he was sure to love!

Brody took the antibiotic and ate a couple of cans of food, laid down by our backdoor, and never stood up again!

He for some unknown reason became paralyzed and spent the night in our greatroom.  His daddy, Wayne and myself, mommy took turns overnight laying with Brody and telling him how much we loved him.  In the morning, on February 10, after no change, we called the vet and made the decision to say goodbye to him.

Our life journey with Brody was short, however we will NEVER forget our buddy!  He was a great dog and lived a wonderful life with us!  He loved to play ball outside, and go on walks with me down the private drive near our house!  He was my confident, best friend, and walking buddy!  Brody, mommy will miss you forever!

He leaves behind a wonderful family, Wayne, Terri, & Kaiya Hop, Travis, Allison, Rylan, Quinn, Jackson, Joey, and Bailey Hop, Troy, Mandi, Nolan, & Sloane Hop!  We all miss him horribly, but we know he was an amazing dog and we took our love with him!

Goodbye buddy!  Heaven has a special dog welcoming everyone at the door!  Love you!
