watching Project Runway the other night, which is a fashion design reality competition. The contestants are in NYC, being engaged by Heidi Klum to create new fashions in hours every week. One of the contestants, Jake, age 37, from SF, receives a call that his dog has to be put down.
The dog is basically Jake's best friend, the one he leaned on at the passing of his own parents, and a companion for many years. Those of you with pets will understand the dilemma. Winning the contest garners him the cash, a cruise for 2 to almost anywhere in the world, a new Lexus something or other, a feature in a top fashion magazine, plus goods and services for shows, and a top of the line sewing center.
Put yourself in Jake's situation (tweak it so you can understand and try not to amuse, as the death of a loved one is seldom fodder for funny) . WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

I suppose this sounds heartless, but I would opt to stay on the show for a once in a lifetime opportunity. I've lost several pets and it hurt me every time. However, as jh said, I can't change what has happened by quitting my current commitment. It goes without saying, that I would have to work very hard to stay focused while someone else was taking care of things at home.

Let him be put down, cremated, and store him on your dresser wherever you go to……..
