My girlfriend just asked me today if I noticed him getting any bigger, we both agreed he's filling out.

I had a great time with him out in the hills today, he was very well minded. I let him roam around unleashed and he didnt wonder off which was something I was worried about.. His nose was sniffing away on anything and everything, I think he was a little overwhelmed.. I noticed his tail laying down a bit limp, is that a normal basset trait in a unfamiliar area?

Here are a few more pictures..

See how his tail is?

Another snap shot of him in the truck......

Over looking Reno, NV (still smokey from the big fires :blink: )....

Well, I had to put down my dog that I owned for 15 years Friday. I thought I could deal with it this pretty well but boy was I wrong... I balled my eyes out all night long. Its kills me to think he's gone forever.... Just saying his name inside my head makes me so sad.

We named him "Ito" because he was born durning the O.J Simpson trial. "Judge Ito" is Japenese and as you might know Akitas were breed in Japan so we thought the name fit ....... Ito's absolute favorite snack was beef jerky, he absolutly LOVED beef jerky!!! He could smell it a mile away and would go CRAZY just to get a piece.

Ito was very friendly and always wanted to play. Even at his old age he would try and keep up with Charlie Boomer (our young Basset). Ito was so young at heart and I think thats the thing that breaks my heart the most.

so sorry about Ito!! He sure was a cutie!! I'm sure Charlie will miss him too!!

 

[RaeChill]

I am so sorry you lost Ito. It is that hardest part of owning a pet. You grow so attachted to them, sometimes even more than you realize until they have to go. He sounds like he was a cool guy. Well. at least you have Charlie to hug while you heal.
btw, Charlie is such a total cutie.

Oh, my. I'm so sorry for your loss. Take comfort in knowing that one day you will think of Ito's name and it will bring a smile to your face instead of a tear to your eye.

Best wishes.
