Gang, Joe's dog Boomer passed away today.
I almost didn't post this, out of concern for respecting Joe's privacy, but I know how much it meant to him when he'd post about Boomer and 100 of you would respond with your own personal dog stories, so I thought you might want to leave him a little note. I think it would cheer him up. Here's a post Joe made two years ago, giving you a little background on Boomer:
"Boomer is my trusty companion. We've been together 6 1/2 years. He's around 13 or 14 -- I adopted him from the Washington Humane Society. Had a rough week with Boomer. On Tuesday, his vet thought he had an enlarged heart and congestive heart failure. On Thursday, we went to the Canine Cardiologist out in the suburbs. John came along for moral support and to ask questions. The cardiology people were great...and the good news is that Boomer's okay. No serious heart problem. Phew. I do love my dog."
