Toys did not faze them but just let them get an old sneaker.

figure out how to go forward at first, only in reverse. They were so much fun.

When I die 1/3 of my estate goes to the animal shelter in Phila. that I volunteered with 35 years and 1/3 to my local humane society. Dogs are the best of the best. My little girlie is 14 but I was diagnosed with an illness last year and I will die around the same time as she will (I figure) and drew a map to show where my ashes will go along with hers, to be with my other dog's ashes from 15 years ago. My lawyer said a lot of people do that now (donations from their estates as well as their ashes) and that makes me glad. They need all the volunteers and donations that they can get. I applaud you and your efforts.!!!!

Not a third, but a sizable dollar amount to the rescue I volunteer for. Made sure I told the executor of my will so there would be no questions. Actually, it is in my revocable trust documents.
