I know we have some dog lovers around here so I thought I'd share this article. "Hawkeye" is a Chocolate Lab that belonged to US Navy SEAL Jon Tumlinson. He was killed August 5th in Afghanistan along with 29 other Americans when their CH-47 Chinook helicopter was shot down. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/heart-wr...during-funeral/  The dog didn't leave that spot through the entire funeral service.

I had seen that story when it first came out. Pretty touching... If I ever die in the line of duty, I'd like to think my Lab would do the same. Don't hope to find out though!

I saw that on another forum. My thoughts echo CJ's!

Got something in my eye..
Excerpt from Robert Crais' "The Monkey's Raincoat:"
"She took another microscopic bite of her sandwich, then pushed it away. Maybe she absorbed nutrients from her surroundings."
