Ed, I know how you must feel. My wife is the best kennel boy a guy could have. She never misses a hunt with us, even in weather that should really keep us home. Sometimes late at night when the dogs (we have 4) have had limited outdoor time, she will go out and just sit with them...each getting “lap time” to end the day. I know how blessed I have been — I’m sure you feel the same. My wife (and I) send best wishes to you and your wife.
