Mocha came into my life 12 1/2 years ago, on July 11, 1997.  I picked her up on a Friday afternoon from my brother’s garage where Cinder and her 6 pups were kept in a plywood boxed in area.  From that day forward, everyday seemed like a new day with Mocha.   My vet explained to me that he believed labs brains were in upside down.  Although, Mocha was a very intelligent best friend, sometimes the things she did never ceased to amaze me and up until a few weeks before her passing, on most days she acted as if she was still that little brown puppy.  Mocha became ill and had to be put to sleep on Halloween, 2009.  That day was one of the crappiest days of my life.  I want to thank Ann for being there for all of us and making the loss of my beloved Mocha more tolerable.  And I want to thank Cheryl and Sara for their support throughout most of Mocha’s life and for their support through that rough Halloween weekend.  Mocha, please know that we miss you very much (Tigger especially misses you)!
