Goodbye Sweet Rocky Dog!

I haven't posted in a while and I plan on making up for it very soon. Right now I just wanted to post a little tribute to the beloved 6th member of our family. We had to say goodbye to our Rocky dog last Thursday, June 17, after finding out he had cancer. He was our first "child", with us for nearly 10 years and very much a part of this family. It was very hard for us to see him go but we know that he is in a much better place now and completely pain free. We will miss him everyday! We love you, Rocky dog!

One happy puppy dog!

Hailey loved her big doggy!

Up close and personal! My sweet puppers!

A very regal looking guard dog! Rocky was a great protector of his family!

Jackson learned very early that if he didn't want to eat his food, Rocky would GLADLY help him out!!!

Rocky was a great dog, Kerry, and I am glad he is not in pain any more.

I am so sorry to read about your Rocky doggie. Losing our beloved family members is so difficult. Thinking of you guys. Happy you got to have such a sweet pet but so sad because I understand that pain. xoxo
