Man's Best Friend, to the End

Now that fireplace insert was installed the year before all this snow.  We had it installed the day before we had our sweet Bo put down.  He made it clear it was time, and it’s one of the hardest things a pet owner ever has to do.  But you do it because you love your pet.  But on that last full day, Bo made friends; the three men that came to install this beast of a stove had, and were fine with, working around Bo.  We did not tell them just how sick he was.  Frankly, I would not have been able to form the words.  I watched them give his head a scratch as they walked by him, or around him.  We waited that one extra day, so my boys could come home from college to say good bye.  Bo was the first, and still only, dog they have ever had.  This is the last picture we have of our boy.  And I know, he’d have loved this stove.
