I read this post this morning, but only just got a chance to comment.<br /><br />I was at work in fact, I have just started doing some dog-sitting myself, so between that and the similarities in the experience with my guinea pig, who was my first pet, this post gave me shivers.<br /><br />You did a wonderful thing for her and were I the pet parents I could have asked for no less. I'm sure they are very glad you were there for their beloved pet.<br /><br />Hope you are okay, April.Melonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05096024678243322835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7078842889642954761.post-62358078136377371832016-02-16T20:28:00.625-05:002016-02-16T20:28:00.625-05:00Oh April!
