		<description><![CDATA[Today, we accompanied Bo on his final trip to the vet. His condition had been deteriorating ever since he&#8217;d been diagnosed with bone cancer, and in recent days he became withdrawn and only a ghost of his normal exuberant self. He couldn&#8217;t sleep at night due to the pain. It was time. Bo actually belonged [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today I was heartbroken to hear that tomorrow I have to say goodbye to Melvil. Mel&#8217;s been a regular in our house since we moved to Monmouth nine years ago. We&#8217;ve walked hundreds of miles together, played every game canines and humans enjoy at home and on the beach, and slept together more times than [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Powder has really been growing fast. In the short time we&#8217;ve had her, she&#8217;s gone from being one of the smallest and shyest dogs at puppy class to one of the largest and most rambunctious. In this clip, she roughhouses with her new buddy, a lab/Rott mix named Charley. BTW, don&#8217;t be mislead by the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After giving the matter a lot of thought, Shirley and I decided we were finally ready for another dog. No dog will ever replace Keiko, but the house seems terribly empty despite Bo&#8217;s nightly visits. It just seems more like home when you have a dog. We found Powder (shown here with Shirley) at Marion [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This weekend, we scattered Keiko&#8217;s ashes at her favorite place to play in the whole world. It&#8217;s near the end of the beach just north of Manzanita, Oregon at the foot of Neahkannie Mountain. Even though we routinely played fetch until my arm was sore and she couldn&#8217;t stand, she always resisted when it was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Even if nothing had happened with Keiko, things would be unusually nutty. I&#8217;ve been out of town on work business for half of the past two weeks (with more time away planned), and I have some big rides coming up. This weekend we&#8217;re taking Keiko&#8217;s ashes to the beach so she can be at her [...]]]></description>

Today, we don&#8217;t feel like doing anything, but one of the things I have been doing is looking at pictures of Keiko as well as the very few [...]]]></description>

If you really need to know, one of the neighborhood girls asked me when it would stop hurting when she thought about her dog Squeaker (he [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I enjoy challenging myself physically, so last weekend I went on a 200 mile bike ride. It just so happens that this ride passed a few blocks from our house so Bryan and I popped by for a short visit around mile 130. I felt great all day, but around mile 170, one of my [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Keiko has really had a rough week. She&#8217;s had 3 seizures and her condition has deteriorated steadily. When she&#8217;s not lying looking only half alive, she wanders aimlessly while bumping into things, and won&#8217;t eat. In addition, she spontaneously falls over and doesn&#8217;t care about her favorite toys, foods, or activities. Knowing that she can&#8217;t [...]]]></description>
