Jonah went out to feed the dogs and He noticed Montana was not coming to eat. So, he went looking for him and found him laying down up by our house under some tree's. Jonah looked at him and said,"come on, get up you old man". Then he realized that something was wrong because Montana just looked up at him and didn't move much. So, Jonah came running in the house and told me frantically that something was wrong with him. But, by the time I got outside he was gone. He just laid down and put his head between his front legs and went to sleep.
Although, I was home alone with the kids, I am so very thankful that Jonah did not find him already gone. I am also thankful that we found him right when he passed. We had plans to not be home much that day and when I let him out that morning he seemed fine so I wouldn't of looked for him before we left. I am thankful that it was a beautiful day for us to dig a grave, and that my brother-n-law(Neil) and father-n-law came to dig the grave.
There are many reminders of him but, I think the ones we will miss the most will be him not running up and down the front yard when we leave in our car, and coming home and not having him meet us at the car door.(as annoying as this was to me at times) This is definitely harder then I thought it ever would be for me.
He had been a part of our family as long as I have been a Momma!
