The replies make me feel better about doing it. RB - I'll be glad to do that. Just let me know when you come come up with the additional 6k....no rush but before Christmas if possible.
I appreciate the replies fellas. Some kind words indeed. I admit we do spoil the heck out of her. I do the most. She is the first dog we've had aside from dogs I had growing up. I objected to getting a dog for several years after we had kids and the wife finally made me give in a few years back. All I can say is that dang dog has made our lives 10x more enjoyable. Had her for 4 years so that comes to $1000 per year. If you could convert enjoyment into cash I say we're still ahead of the curve by a long shot. Amazing how they steal your heart isn't it?
