We are sad to say that Squince died this afternoon from liver failure. The vet thinks he ate something that caused it. He was 3 months old and the new baby of Kent & Kait for just 3 weeks. He was an American Bulldog Mix from Florida. He didn't appear all that much on the blog, but here are some pictures to show you how much Squince was loved on in such a short amount of time.
He grew a lot in 3 weeks!Kent taught him how to walk with a leash, to sit and he was still learning to fetch & return (the "return" part was still kind of tricky for him :)
Kait was the official snuggler and picture taker (and yes, there's a lot of pictures)But this lady really held the power. Grandma had the secret stash of chewies that she gave out when he visited her.
Some of his favorite activities included... dreaming about food
Hanging out in the laundry piles on Laundry Day
Posing for his Mom's pictures. He was really good at stopping for pictures, but this face looks like "Geez Ma, another picture? C'mon..."
Driving around town
and watching his Dad make incredible looking (and smelling!) sandwiches that he never was allowed to eat.
Honestly, this is not how it was supposed to happen. We were supposed to have years and years with this small pup. He was going to be Kait's company while Kent logged long hours downtown taking Seminary classes and he was going to welcome home his 2-legged siblings someday. We were going to watch him grow up to be a handsome guy someday.
Squince, we would've let you chew on all of our milk cartons and spill milk on the carpet if we knew that this would happen. (P.S. Who has 2 dogs that die within 2 months of each other? Seriously.)

Oh Kait I am so so sorry. It's amazing how quickly they wiggle their furry little selves into your heart. I know he was super loved in those three weeks with you guys and I am so sad that you didn't get longer with him. You and I have a mutual non-hugging understanding (haha remember), but you can pretend I am hugging you right now.
