Tango
I requested and received permission to post this here.
Sunday I had to put down my best friend. His name was Tango.
He was a retired K9 and he never let me down. Never in 14 years.
He was a warrior too. In his role and in his way.
And I am honored to be allowed to put his name in this forum.

I'm sorry for your loss Michelle. I had to put down my best mate a few years ago, too. Kia kaha (stay strong).

Sorry for your loss, it is one of the most difficult things you will ever have to do. They become family, only better.
I shall lift a glass to Tango this evening.
