    Our dog is 15..adopted her (Dixie) when she was 2 months old. Every morning I wake up and see her, I know there are less days ahead with her than the day before. But we go in knowing this. Their tender hearts, their smile, dedication to us, loyalty, and most of all, their love they give unconditionally, are a true gift. Precious memories forevermore…Precious Big T left quite a legacy. Thank y’all for letting him in to our world..

    Folks,I just stopped in from taking a break from your videos for a while...I'm so sorry to hear about Big T. Lost my buddy in June to cancer and truly not a day goes by that I don't think of him. I had hoped to had more adventures with him than I got but,we lived the best we could. I know your little angel surely did.prayers for all who were close to him.

    Thank you for sharing your time and love of places you enjoy though out the mountains. I read about the passing of Big T. My heart is broken and tears for him flow freely. I never met Big T yet his Spirit of love towards all was amazing. His wonderful look of beauty and always giving his opinion about the food flowing around him. The fireside chats with Big T guiding the ship towards Christ as the fire of life flickered round you. He will be missed dearly yet not forgotten. See you on the other side of the river Big T, save me a place at the table with Christ. All my Love. Peace be with you all. Always. 😂

    I tried to watch and enjoy this video, but it was so hard. 😭 I have cried and cried just like he was mine since I found out. I will truly miss my man, Big T and I know ya'll will for sure. I'm so sad. Your family member has crossed Rainbow Bridge. You have so many memories of him to remember. He was a good boy. I wish I could have met him in person. So glad he got to go on so many adventures and got to snooze and snore by the fire 🔥 during the fireside chats. My heart breaks.💔 Thanks for the video. I know you'll have at least one more or maybe two videos with him in it. I'll try to watch. Your videos will not be the same knowing he will not be in them anymore. Try to continue to enjoy your travels. Be safe and God Bless. Love you guys ❤️ Ya'll are in my prayers.🙏 Mike, I definitely have to have one of those new stickers with Big T, please.

    So sorry to hear you lost Big T. It looks like he had a great loving life with you guys and I know he will be missed. We had three elderly dogs pass within a year of each other a few years back and now we have a sweet rescue Yorkie Mix. He turned 4 in August and we look forward to many more years with him. He goes wherever we go even to Gatlinburg back in September. Your in my thoughts and prayers.

Thank you for giving him a loving home and thank you for such good videos also.
