it is with heavy heart that I share that Cowboy lost his battle with cancer earlier today. as many of you know, CB along with his mom Whitney and dad Jody (& granma Debbie) were fighting a good fight against this horrible enemy. Whitney told me that he waited until she got back home today and then passed shortly after in her arms. Please remember the family during this difficult time.

Bob and I have been where you are right now...and we send you MANY PRAYERS to ease the pain a little.... He WILL live on in your hearts...always. You will see him or hear him or feel his presence and over time you will smile...but I won't lie and say you wnot always miss him.... When Our Wyatt went thru his battle it made us closer... and his loss hit us and all the vets hard.... It's been quite a long time now and I still miss him daily. It IS different but I do miss him. I"m sure Bob does too but we dont talk about it often....

Your dog was so special to you and to many... and his memories will live on.

Sincerely Sorry, Heather and Bob

PS...NEVER EVER stop praying for the cures for these canine cancer and ALL cancers! Alot of research is done on the dogs before they become successful in humans.... if you can AFFORD to get your dogs treated it does help the medical community as well as the veterinary..... We pray daily.....
