A sad day at the Ellis homestead.

Just got home from the vet's... we had to put our Maggie Mae down today... she had developed a cancerous growth on the hind leg that was the size of a good sized orange... even he foot was swollen and puffy. Plus I could feel a growth on her tummy about the size of a golf ball and a couple on her back not quite that large.

She's been with us for about 15 years, spending most of her nights outside protecting us from critters. About the only times she wanted in the house was when it was thundering a bit outside or the neighbor (we call him Andy Oakley) has his guns out and was target shooting in his back yard.

Sincere condolences, Chuck. Loss of a pet is always a hard one. Just remember all the great years she had with you.
