A Loss

  Just as I thought we had turned a corner, that I could start to relax and that all was well, we lost one of the puppies. He slipped away early Wednesday morning, of no apparent trauma or obvious cause.  He had been steadily gaining weight and while I said he was more mellow than his brother, he was active enough that I didn't anticipate this.  The remaining pup is very vigorous (thank heavens!), very vocal in expressing his needs and dislikes.  He really doesn't appreciate me waking him constantly to make sure he is still strong and healthy or weighing him every few hours!
