Joe was a great dog. he was amazing,what he could do and survive at the same time. Once he ate about 1/2 a pound of chocolate,he was okay, didn't even need medical attention. He ate a poynsettia plant,same thing.He had his tail cut off,he still knocked down stuff from the table. Joe once took a new jar of peanut butter to the middle of the stairs, somehow opened it, ate some and tried putting the lid back on. How could he do possibly do this.But at 15, cancer got him. eventhough we were with him for about 13 years, it didn't seem long enough. Even if he lived til 30. we'd still feel that way, guess you don't know what you've got until it's gone.To Joe: "We love you, and we'll maybe meet again someday."
