3 years ago I had the toughest day of my life. I had to let this sweet, handsome, wonderful, loving boy go. Casey was my best friend, my 4-footed son and the best thing that has ever come into my life. I raised him from a pup and was there to hold him, as it was time for him to move onto another life. I made a promise to him when I brought him home at 8 weeks old; I would be with him for his entire life. I wouldn’t have had it end any other way.

Loyalty; he was the definition of loyalty. He was the sweetest boy and the toughest retriever in the field. Never backed down, never quit, worked hard and always found his ducks. He loved people, would let kids touch and pet him for hours and always was willing to learn something new. Every time I brought a new puppy home he was a gentleman and showed them the ways of our pack. Always adapting, always learning, always loving. He was a Certified Therapy Dog test and worked to get his AKC Junior and Senior hunting titles.

Casey provided me the best 14 years of my life. Miss you big time. We’ll be together again one day. Love - Greg, Abbey & Tess.

RIP Touchstone’s Sunshine Casey, SH 5/2/98 – 7/27/12
