Ah, Admiral Byrd, you were fourteen and lived a long and loved life. You survived being hit by a car; being shot at and hit; and always came back.
For my daughter's American Eskimo, the last of the litter of eight, and in remembrance of my crazy Domino.

You know, LittleK, my son and I had an interesting discussion about eternal life as found in the molecules that radiate from demised things. They all become a part of a leaf; a tree; a flower; In looking at fresco's thread about Anthony Flew, I begin to think of that. Perhaps Admiral Byrd has become a part of Whitman's leaves of grass. <smile>

I feel no sadness, strangely. How could one be down when that dog brought such furry delight to all who knew him.

I like your medical/chemical approach to immortality. You provide a glamour that is lacking with Caesar's dust stopping a bunghold.

May your Admiral always be a source of joyous memories.

Three cheers and a couple of woofs for the eternal Admiral Byrd.

What a wonderful name for a dog to live with.

Thanks Noddy and ehBeth. Ad Byrd (shortened the name) was a special little woofer. <smile>

Sorta looked like Bailey, only snow white with a black muzzle.

Love to all
From LettyBetty
