Friends, we are very sad to share that Kipper became an angel this morning and joined Ellie, Chi Chi, Maggie and Harry in Heaven. During the night Kipper started having seizures, so we rushed him to the emergency vet. They gave him medicine to lessen the seizures and did an ultrasound and bloodwork but didn’t find anything to be the cause. The vet thinks the seizures were probably caused by something in his brain due to old age. He was 8 days shy of being 17.5 years old. Kipper had been doing so

We adopted our first dog together before we were married, so this is the first time in our 30 year marriage that we haven’t had a dog. Our home is quiet, our routines are no longer necessary and coming home to an empty house is unbearable. We find comfort knowing that Chi Chi, Maggie, Harry and Kipper are together again and that Ellie is with them too. They are now the Fab
