I learned yesterday that Trouble's dad crossed over the bridge on Saturday.  He was 14 years old and had been fighting the effects of age for the last several weeks.  Sharon, his owner, is heartbroken.  Please keep her in your thoughts.

RIP sweet Gambit, you were a grand old man.  Run free at Rainbow Bridge.

Shanna & Spirit Trouble ~ Trouble gained her wings 3/16/2011, a 27 1/2 month cancer survivor, tail wagging RIP sweetheart, you are my heart and soul.  Run free at Rainbow Bridge.
We honor our fellow November Five members who will always remain forever in my heart: Nova – the lone survivor, live proud and long; Spirits Max, Cherry, & Tika – who made half the journey with us and greeted Trouble at the Bridge

I'm so sorry to hear about Trouble's dad, Gambit… It is so sad to loose our babies, no matter how old they are… Sad My thoughts and prayers are with your friend Sharon, during this sad time…

Jake, 10yr old golden retriever (fractured his front right leg on 9/1, bone biopsy revealed osteosarcoma on 9/10, amputation on 9/17) and his family Marguerite, Jacques and Wolfie, 5yr old german shepherd and the newest addition to the family, Nala, a 7mth old Bengal mix kittie.

Trouble, we are so sorry about your Poppa. Like Marguerite said, losing a family member at any age is so hard, but what a lucky guy to live 14 long years. Wow.

We send our love and sympathy to you and your family.

It's better to hop on three legs than to limp on four.™

Trouble & Sharon, we're so sorry to hear of your loss.  Troble's dad, Gambit, must have been one heck of a dog.  Our deepest condolences to you and Gambit's family.  Cry

Love, Blazer, Kitty Kimber & Vicki
