Dear Toby,
Thank you for 17 years of love and joy. You were the sweetest terrier I've ever had the honor to know. When we meet again it will be easy for me to recognize you - you'll be the one with ball in mouth, tail held high - running fast and free.
We love you, Toby! Godspeed. Your new adventure is here.

It is so hard to say goodbye to our furry family member of 17 years! It was an agonizing decision to make but poor Toby's body was just done - it was much too hard for him to get around any longer. We extended his life by exactly four months with the help of those adorable little traction socks. I miss everything about him right now - his staggering little walk and endearing expression and little worn brown ears. There's a huge vacancy in our home without him here and it will take a long time to adjust. Toby was actually the sweetest terrier I've ever met - not an aggressive bone in his body - yes, he was obsessed with the tennis ball and that was totally his charm. He had an intensity about the ball that was all his own! I just know he's zooming around right now catching balls and having a good time - and he knows he was very loved!
