Gabriella

After being our travelling companion for almost 13 years, we had to put Gabriella down on Nov 14th.  She had been battling arthritis for about 5 years and was getting worse each year so we knew she didn't have very long left.  She had what we believe was a stroke in the afternoon, and after several hours she had not regained control of her right legs so we decided that this was the time.  Fortunately there was an emergency vet in Edmonton, and she was out of pain by 9 PM that evening.  Having been with us for many, many adventures she will most definitely be missed.
