Sad news to share

My dog, Pumpkin, has passed on. Last weekend I was with the AANR Cape Cod beach cleanup and stayed at Sandy Terraces. When I picked her up from the kennel, she had a deep cough. Tuesday was my wife's birthday (wife is in a nursing home), hence Pumpkin and I visited her. Pumpkin had very little energy to do any walking. Wednesday, I took her to the vet, because she wasn't eating. The vet found that she had gook in her lungs. This morning, Thursday, Pumpkin died. I am letting the social workers at the nursing home, break the news to my wife.
