A Somber-ish Separated at Birth

Eric...and his trusty pug Winky back in New York?

When Eric moved to Florida, he left behind his little one-eyed pug doggie, aptly named Winky, with a family across the street. He was Eric's camping buddy, bedfellow, even wingman from time to time. We still thought about Winky from time to time, but today we got word from New York that Winky died after being struck by a car. His new family was pretty sad, but Eric is taking it pretty well, even though he says, "Winky never saw it coming." (Okay, it's a little funny.)

Bye, Winks. Here's hoping all dogs go to heaven.

Poor Winky. And Eric is absolutely adorable and funny.

I'm so sorry about your Winky.
My son and his family have a one eyed pug that looks exactly like him.
