That's sad

I hope the dog gets better...
Wonder what they will charge the perp with...

That is one good looking dog.
I wish him all the best.

Cezar has got to be one of the most beautiful GS I have ever seen. Sadly, I imagine his career is most likely going to end in retirement.

This seems to be a date that unfortunately seems to have tragic events.
