Terry and his best friend Todd


My father-in-law (affectionately also known as Daddy-O) just lost his best friend, canine-companion Todd. Terry had held Todd in his arms when he was just a tiny puppy and nurtured him through his life for the next 14 years. They would go out for long walks in the woods together each day, both returning full of life and with peace in their hearts. Whenever we'd gather around in the house, Todd would perch on his dog sofa and listen in on the conversations. And of course, whenever Terry was gone for a few moments, Todd would greet Terry's return with the biggest dog-smile you've seen.

Terry honestly reveals his heartbreak on his blog here:
My Life: The giving of life, the taking of life

My heart goes to Terry and my prayers to Todd, who now rests comfortably on his dog sofa in heaven, still accompanying Terry on his daily walks through life.
