Meet Soweto, a 72kg Khanghal (anatolian sheppard). Been with him since day one of his life. What a wonderful friend I have the chance to have!

I've two dogs and I've never lost one before. When this time comes, I'm not sure I'll be strong enough. I worry about that sometimes.

Remember one thing. If you have to have one put sleep remember that you are helping them pass one with grace. They don't suffer anymore than they have to.
