Trooper "Big Mutt" Sartin

Sea BreezesTrooper "Big Mutt" Sartin of Darien, GA passed away from this earth quietly and peacefully yeterday afternoon at the vet's office in McItosh County, Georgia.. His mom, Phyllis, dad, Harold and new puppy, Pippin were by his side. He was preceded in death by his best buddy and companion, Toby "Sweet Boy" Sartin. Trooper was the son of mutts and was at least 16 years old. He sustained injuries when his mom hit him in the yard with the truck.

Trooper had never been sick a day in his life. He loved getting into garbage, and he loved riding in a car. He could do 12 tricks, but he could not respond to "come". He spent his early years breaking out of the backyard, chasing cars and joggers, and yowling in front of neighborhood houses in the night. The neighbors would come out, he would hide, and when they were fast asleep again, he would start all over. He hated cats, but loved other dogs. He was popular and made friends in every neighborhood he ever lived in. He loved his stuffed "quirrel."He leaves his current friends Cassi, Nemo, and Blondie.
He leaves his mom, Phyllis, his dad, Harold, and his new best friend, Pippin.

He will be cremated. His family asks that you any donations be made to your local humane society.

Troop, old boy, this writer will miss you. You lived your last days like you wanted-a country dog on the front porch or laying in the driveway dirt.
