    Abbie Gilbert

    I lost Abbie last Weds. I remember when my wife brought her home from a friend of a friend breeder. She was 50.00. I asked my wife what to name her, Abigail, or Victoria? Abbie it was! Abbie was such a smart girl, walk with no leash, poop and pee in front yard without going near my street. She was the absolute best dog one could wish for. In her time, she was hit by a car (we were in crosswalk) so not her fault. She spent 12-13 days at the emergency vet, and guess what, she picked up MERSA. Poor girl, Abbs was a trooper, she pulled through 6 surgeries, and came out the best she possibly could. She still loved to swim, and fetch the ball.. In the end she slept more, but I dont remember a night going by without her laying next to me in bed. Oh what I would give to go back 14 years and do it all over. We love our pets, Thank you GOD for letting me care for your fur baby, Abbie Gilbert.

    What a beautiful girl Abbie was...that's a seriously sweet face. Rest in Peace, pretty girl....Run Free!

    Ummm....we're used to seeing pics of dogs upside down, but how clever of you to imitate that pose yourself.

    I am sorry. Abbie has a lovely, sweet face. I wish we had been able to get to know her better but you can chime in on posts that make you think of her. That's one thing this board is good for, among many things, there will be many reminders of the one now only with you in your heart and soul.

    Thank you everyone for the warm replies. I was here many moons ago, with a screen name of Black88GT. Signature was "car guy with a dog". LOL you guys were the first thing that popped up when I felt I need a big lab hug. This board is amazing <3 -Dave
