Corndog

Yesterday, the boys' dog {Corndog} chased her last car.

*****************

Jason left for work around 6 am yesterday morning, and Corndog {doing what she does every morning} chased his truck down our little road. Only this time she got a little too close the tires, and Jason accidentally ran over her.

He came back to the house to tell me and ask what I thought we should do. He was worried about waking up the boys and not knowing what to tell them. He decided to drive down the road to his grandmother's house {she lives about two miles away} to bury her.

******************

We stayed inside most of the day yesterday and the boys haven't noticed that she is gone yet. Jason was going to tell them last night...but we aren't quite sure how to break the news to a 5 year old and a 3 year old.

*******************

She was a good country yard dog

kept to herself

played with her neighbor dog friends

slept during the day

and rarely barked unless a strange dog came into the yard

*********************

The boys really loved Corndog...and she will be greatly missed!
