This is Odie. He died on Sept. 10, 1997 of a tick disease. He was
only 3-1/2 years old. We had major problems with ticks. Even
though I treated the dogs with Frontline, they still got a lot
of ticks. Working full-time I didn't have a lot of time to
spray very often. But, in the spring of '98 while I wasn't
working, I started spraying the tree area 3 times a week for
2 or 3 weeks. I finally got rid of the ticks. But I still feel
guilty about Odie dying. He was my favorite dog.



Here is Odie with his mother, Speckles. They would sit together
for hours while she cleaned him. His father was Bandit.
Mandy is his sister. Odie had Bandit's personality, his
long hair and his grin.
