bonal Posted February 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2017 We took Magneto for his first flight today just a local trip around our area climbed to 5500 and flew for a half hour. My wife noticed him getting a bit sick so she got in the back seat and got a bag ready. We made the landing and wasn't till we were rolling ou that he got sick. But he did good for his first flight. We will get him up again soon. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiguy Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 (edited) I did pick up our pup with the plane, about a 45 minute flight home. She is grown up now and loves the car. I should get her used to the plane too. Edited February 19, 2017 by wiguy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aviatoreb Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 Here's my girls. Cupid is the big white fuzzy white samoyed, and she is an old lady now - 10. She's about 75lbs. Strava is the little one - she's about 9 months and 14 lbs so she will stay a little dog. I'm thinking of getting Strava one of those doggy co-pilot faux aviator jackets and bringing her along. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never realized that Chris was a vet, nor that surgery could be done over the Internet . . . Good looking good little fellow, though. Should be a great fit in your backseat, like my little 9-pounder. Sorry, no photos on my new tablet yet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly Rasta passed away last night. We think she was about 13. Normal day until 7:30 PM. She was lying under the kitchen table where two grandkids had been eating. She got up and walked around the end of the table and had difficulty walking with some bladder leakage. Brenda got her outside onto the lawn where she laid down and was very weak and lethargic. Our next door neighbor is a recently retired vet who came and examined her. First suspected a stroke, but then internal bleeding when pulse was weak. The nearest animal hospital that was open was 1.5 hour drive. X-Ray revealed massive internal bleeding probably from ruptured spleen. She passed peacefully just as we had made the decision to put her to sleep. Life is fleeting and precious. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skates97 Posted September 17, 2017 Report Share Posted September 17, 2017 So sorry to hear this, glad she passed peacefully. The loyalty and love that dog's give is why they are man's best friend. I love my dogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonal Posted September 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2017 That is such sad news so very sorry to read that. Hopeful you will find another that makes you as happy. I alway feel good knowing we saved Magneto from the shelter and are able to give him a home and all the love and attention he deserves. Our last flight his second he did great but my wife did mention he looked a little off while I was letting her friend fly the plane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steingar Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Dogs decline quickly. Hardest thing I ever did was put down my little Moogie dog. It was her time, but that didn't help any. My compliments to the OP for naming a dog after a Johnny Quest character. There's a Newfoundland in the neighborhood named Race. I've been told that dogs do about as well in the airplane as they do in the car. For that reason I keep my boy dog Kurzon far from the Mooney. There's hope for my little Lhasa Phyzzbyn, though.

Actually My girlfriend now wife named him so she gets the credit and when I met her and asked if it was from the J Quest character she said yes I knew she was someone I would want to get to know better. Aside from Looney tunes Jonny Quest was by far the coolest Saturday morning cartoons when I was a kid. not the best animation but nice art work and great story concepts. And of coarse lots of aviation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
