With heavy hearts, we say goodbye to our good friend, Archie.  Archie just showed up at the clinic in 2009, a fuzzy, black ball of fur that we all fell in love with.  He never wandered far (maybe to the barn to catch birds) and was always on hand to make our days better.  He knew every inch of the clinic and how to get there.  It was always a challenge to make sure we would stay one step ahead of him. 

So this is where we part, my friend, and you'll run on, around the bend.  Gone from sight, but not from mind, new pleasures there you'll surely find.

We will go on; we'll find the strength, life measures quality, not its length.  One long embrace before you leave, share one last look, before we grieve.

Your place we'll hold, you will be missed, the fur we stroked, the nose we kissed.  And as you journey to your final rest, take this with you, we loved you the best!
