We love that funny dog, we do, but what sort of life is it for an animal to live in a kennel all day and then be ignored all night? He deserves better. He's with a family now that has another dog to be his buddy and a fenced yard where he can run. Maybe he'll slim down a little!
To "re-home" him was my idea, but it was me who cried when he left. It was me who teared up again when Anne said "Mikey's gotta come back home." She seemed to get it this morning when she said "Mikey has a new home, now." He seemed very happy when he left, and he didn't look back at us as they drove away.
So, bye, Mikey dog. You were a lot of things, but most of all loyal. We'll miss you.

Gracie still prays every night (and at dinner) to thank God that our old beagle Sam will never die again since he is in doggy heaven.
I would venture to say that he is in doggy purgatory at best, but the kiddos don't need to know about that.
Giving a dog enough attention is hard to do with two young kids. Sorry you had to do that.
