Byron the Ring Dog

My name is Annie (Amsberry) McDonnell and Byron was the ring dog in our wedding of March 2006. He was so excited to see his master at the end of the aisle that he practically trotted down the aisle, dragging the two ring bearer boys behind him with an extended leash. He was a hit. And I always loved his "smart bump" on the top of his head. When Rich lived in Portland, Byron had a friend squirrel that would run along the top of the fence. He couldn't wait to get outside to watch her, and he would just follow her every move, smiling the whole time. Byron was a sweet dog.

Our son, Will, is 9.5 months now and LOVES dogs. It's too bad he'll never get to meet Byron. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Take care,
Annie
