Poor Ben!
Ben is my pops doggie. That big bastard is a pain in my butt, but he is a great running partner. He's been loving our am runs this week.
Poor Molly girl, may she FIP (fly in peace). I did just remembered jackie gave her a saltine cracker the other day, I sure hope that wasn't what killed her.
