It was 2004. I had waited my whole (22 years at that point) life to have an inside dog. It was certainly a prerequisite for my future spouse to be on board and James not only agreed but spent hours researching what breed would be the best fit for us and our future family. After purchasing our first house with a proper yard, we brought AJ home. A few months later, we decided he needed a buddy to keep him company so we went back to get Brisco.
Back then, the thought of having a dog (or two) for over 16 years sounded crazy. Were we really ready for that kind of commitment? But now we’d give anything to have 16 more. They were good pups. It broke our hearts to say goodbye today (harder than I had even imagined) but we are at peace knowing that they did not have to suffer. AJ and Brisky, you will be missed.
