My dear friends here at EBN, On Saturday, February 19, 2011, my life changed when I brought home the sweetest, chubbiest little meatball - Dudley, the English Bulldog. I had waited 25 years for my little EBD. he became my little boy, my sweet baboo, my love. He made his Daddy (Scott Kantruss) and I laugh all of the time - burying things with invisibile dirt, sucking on his baby, playing with his beloved toys (oh how he loved his toys), his little wiggle-butt when he walked, and those giant feel that garnered him the nickname, Mr. Fat Paws. Everyone in the neighborhood knew him, talked to him and loved him. But we noticed changes, more bets, more trainers, meds, acupuncture, but nothing was helping. Something was very wrong with my baby's little brain. After months and months of agonizing and fear, on Monday, February 8th, my life changed again, and my heart shattered into a billion pieces as Dudley sweetly, peacefully crossed over the Rainbow Bridge. Although I know that crossing ended his pain and suffering, it just made mine and his Daddy's greater. In my shattered heart, I always will be "Dudley's Mom" - that shattered heard that hears nothing but the never-ending silence. No more barks at the UPS man, nor more running around the yard, no more Dudley kisses, and no more soft bully snores. Mommy and Daddy will never, ever forget you sweet, sweet bully baby. Mommy misses you and will always, always love you Dudley.
