Sparks Poseidon Rackham

Sparks Poseidon Rackham aka Mans Best Friend passed away on March 14, 2011:(  He truely was mans best friend as Jason always said he was his best friend.  Whenever I said "What about me?" he would tell me I could be his best "human friend" lol.  Sparks died at the old age of 16. Times that by 7 and that makes him 112 dog years!

When Jason and I were dating I had asked Jason's Dad if he would like anything from McDonalds.  He didn't, but said that Sparks would like 2 hamburgers with nothing on it:)  Another time Richard (Jason's Dad) had taken him through a drive through and he asked for a cup to put the carton of milk in he ordered.  When the waitress asked why she couldn't just give him a straw, Richard replied, "Because my dog can't drink through a straw!"  The day Sparks died my sister brought us some food and brought Jason 2 hamburgers with nothing on it.  It was really sweet of her. 

We will miss that doggie who's favorite food is pop tarts!  No really, that is how I got him to warm up to me when Jason and I were first married:)  A trail of poptarts from the yard to the house was a great way to get him to come in for the girl who just moved in. From the sounds of my post its like we never bought him dog food:) But we did:)


This is our favorite picture of him as a puppy

I'm sorry he passed. Sounds like you have a lot of good memories of him.
