Idot

Our sweet little Idot (Dotty, Idotty, Dot-Dot) passed away yesterday afternoon.

Shane and I were coming in from out of town when we got the phone call from my mom. We new this day would be coming, but are still pretty upset - especially since we weren't here this weekend.

We are not sure how old Idot was. Somewhere between 12-15 years is what has been estimated... so that is a long time for a big dog. Idot was adopted by Shane after she showed up, scared and beaten, at a friend's house. Shane was the only person she would go near, so off she went with him. She moved down to Auburn with him, and became his roomate for the remaining 2 years of his college career.

Mom said after it happened, Bailey went to the bottom of the yard and wouldn't come out from under a bush. Rowdy just hid in his house—coming out every once in a while to bark in Idot's direction. It makes me wonder what they (our other dogs) are thinking, when things like this happen...
