My little miss fritos feet, who hadn't been mine for 2 years, passed on last month, two days before her 13th birthday. I was informed after the fact, even though she had been sick for a few days.
(This is not the puppy in the basket, although she isn't in my custody anymore either.)

I'm really sorry to hear that. I've lived apart from a beloved dog before and not being there when she went sucked terribly. When I got word of it, I took a day off work and the Displaced Dog and I drove up to Tahoe and played in the snow for an afternoon in her honor. She would have told us we were doing it wrong and showed us the right way to dig in the snow.
The DD will be 14 in October. He's under strict orders not to pass on any time soon unless it's with me in a firey crash. So far he's taking those orders to heart.
