Our Sweet RyRy...

We had to put our sweet Cocker Spaniel Ryan down this afternoon.  She was 15 1/2 years old and had just really aged the past few months.  She wasn't eating the past few weeks which made her go downhill quick.  
I bought her as a gift for Mark when we were just dating.. back in college.  She was the cutest puppy, the best dog ever and just the sweetest girl.  She was our first baby and treated just like one until the kids all came along.  Sort of sad how that happens.  Ryan's love was chasing and playing ball.  She would play until her pads were raw when she was younger. These past few years she could hardly see the ball to chase.  So now she is up in Heaven chasing balls again like a young pup!  We love you, Ryan!
