Snaps, his faithful companion and best friend that he had to leave to go to war, is wagging his tail that hardest at the Rainbow Bridge now that they have been reunited.

Toby, your suffering is finally over It is those of us you left behind who will feel the sadness and heavy hearts until we meet again.
