i had to dispose of some of judge's beloved toys today.
he really does love them to pieces. after they're in pieces, he loves them more.
they started out as a lamb and a raccoon. lammy and raccoon have been very faithful friends. they've spent many a night curled up in bed and many a day in front of the big window, getting some sun. judge was very diligent about getting each one of them out of bed each morning, one at a time, and carefully carrying them to his favorite spot in the living room.
sure, he did pull all the stuffing out of them but he loved their little fuzzy carcasses all the same. he was always concerned about the status of his pelt friends. at least once a day he would hold raccoon in his mouth and cry until somebody played with them. he loved lammy enough to try and keep all three pieces of him together at all times.
we said a nice goodbye and then i distracted judge with some treats while i gently laid the little buddies in the garbage.
we know that they have gone to a better place and they join buffalo, duck, rabbit, turkey and other friends. we hope they enjoy doggie toy heaven - we'll meet again.

Spending a moment of silence in honor of lammy and raccoon.
