Elvis "Elvie" lived to be nearly 14.5 years; he went to "Heaven" on April 4, 2007. Elvie was a black lab/golden retriever mix and the most intelligent dog we have ever known. We adopted him when he was 2 years old. He had his "mid-life crisis" when we decided to have a human child. I used to refer to Elvie as my Big, Black, Beautiful, Baby Boy; he was never far from my side. He is pictured here with Turbo "Bo-Bo"; they were best buds.
