Elmo had a beautiful life. He had a big brother (Waldo) who taught him all he needed to know to be a good hunter and farm dog. He was a prancer and a very happy and loved dog. He died way too soon at the age of nine and will be forever in our hearts. I can't imagine heaven without animals so I'll see you again someday my precious boy. P.S. He had a very big bark but learned to use his indoor voice.
