Today, and the next day, and then next day....our hearts are broken. Today, our 7 month old Australian Shepherd named Sounder died. We are so incredibly sad. Sounder chased Ken's truck when he left for work and somehow got caught under the back wheel and died instantly. We take great peace in knowing he didn't suffer and that his last 24 hours on earth were good ones. Yesterday, Ken and I took Sounder and Hope around on our errands, took them to Ken's parents house to play with their dogs, and then down to the Columbia River to swim. It was Sounder's first time swimming in "the deep end." This morning, he made both trips with us up to the bus stop with the kids. This was one special dog and a member of our family. We now feel empty and sad inside but know that this feeling will pass but we will forever remember our favorite puppy named Sounder.

Oh I am so sorry for you guys!!
We drove down there last week and Sounder came out to greet us. We played with him and Nathan kept giggling at him. What a sweet dog-we're so sorry!
I'm so sorry for you guys. Losing a dog can be so painful. Our hearts go out to you.
