The inspiration for my on line name was an ex racing greyhound that I adopted in 2001, who's registered name was "Doggone Dopey". His litter mates I have read were "Doggone Sleepy", "Doggone Sneezy", etc. He raced mostly in Iowa. In 81 races he had 13 wins, 8 places, and 19 shows according to his racing history. He passed away yesterday of old age at 13 1/2.
For those of you who are looking for a dog as a pet, check your area for a rescue agency. Nearly every state probably has one. They are the best dogs. Incredibly quiet and gentle, and nearly always great with other pets and children.

I am sorry for the loss and I totally understand what that means to you. I too lost my dog after 13 years about 4 years ago.
About 1 year ago I adopted my new dog named Sadie from the local animal shelter.
Dog's are a great companion and they are there for you, no matter what is going on.
