One has to wonder why things happen the way they do sometimes. While my wife and I are here in Georgia preparing for our move here next week we placed our two dogs in a kennel that we have used several times and as a matter of fact they are also breeders for English Springer Spaniels for which we bought our other dog from them. We received a call yesterday morning that our boy chopper was not doing well, not eating and throwing up. She felt he needed immediate care from our vet. Immediately we called our vet and told him the situation. Later that day he informed us he was critical. Kidneys shutting down and an x ray showed a mass in his stomach. He passed overnight. We’re devastated. Here’s a few pictures of the sweetest little boy that ever has four paws. Goodbye my boy, daddy will miss and always love you. First picture is the first day we got him.

So sorry. They are family
 
We left him having no indication he was ill. He never missed a meal since we owned him. Only the other day they informed us he didn’t eat. We know then something was terribly wrong. He was my wife’s love.
 
Sorry to hear that John, condolences.
 
Always heartbreaking, sorry for your loss John.
 
Yes it is. Thanks Jerome
 
So sorry for you and your wife John. It is devastating when you lose a cherished pet.
 
What a beautiful pictures to remember him by. It's so sad. I am very sorry to hear this.
 
I’m so sorry, my friend. Small dogs are so brave and loyal.
 
Sorry for the loss of your Furbaby Johnny. Mourn and remember him, as all too often a passing of dog is overlooked but you truly need time to heal as they are family.
 
John - Sorry to hear about Chopper.
 
Condolences brother. Always difficult with our pets
 
He was a good looking little guy for sure. I’m glad he didn’t suffer a long process.
 
Wonderful looking dog. Lost mine a year ago this month, while away from home as well. So sorry for your loss...I’ve found they live forever in your heart and mind.

Hallo Marius- do you have possibilities for stags in September during the roar? Where are your hunting areas in Romania?

I'm about ready to pull the trigger on another rifle but would love to see your rifle first, any way you could forward a pic or two?
Thanks,

Love your rifle! I'm needing a heavier rifle for Africa. Sold my .375 Dakota Safari several trips ago. Would you have any interest in a trade of some sort involving the custom 338/06 I have listed here on the site ( I have some room on my asking price. I also have a large quantity of the reloading components and new Redding dies as well as a box of A-Square Dead Tough ammo.
