Damn, it IS awful dusty in here. I'm not the most sentimental of people, so I didn't think it would get dusty, but man did it get dusty.
We had a golden when I was a little kid, and my parents had to put her down when she started getting these really bad seizures. One of the worst experiences of my life. As a parent, I'll do my best to try to make sure the kids aren't little when the dog dies.
