Maverick dies today. He's not dead yet or maybe he is. I could find out but that's not the point. He got old and sick and the vet and folks decided it was time to let him go. He died as soon as the decision was made and when the vial full of heart stopping poison was injected into him is almost irrelevant from twelve thousand kilometers away.
He lived just over 14 year and the last 4 years of his life I barely knew him. He was the ever forgiving friend, always welcoming me back after a long period of absence with a wag of tail and all the exuberance he could muster in his old age. I had little time for him as I flittered between friends and family, trying to maximise my time at home.
Rest in peace old friend.
