In 2004 I won $10,000 on a “Slingo” slot machine. What made this really special is I won $2500 on the exact same combination at 4 different casinos during a summer RV trip. I told my husband if we got a puppy we had to name her Slingo. We got Slingo the golden retriever in 2005. She died suddenly in 2015. Slingo was my “lucky dog” in every way. I miss her and think of her everyday. But truly we were the lucky ones to share almost 10 years with our sweet Slingo. Love you forever, mama View

Linda, our golden retriever died of a stroke as well. The suddenness made her passing even worse, but I believe our girl knew how much harder it would be for us if we had to make the decision for her so she sparred us that pain. Even after several years have gone by I still miss her everyday. -

Sorry I did not see this till tonight. Slingo died of a stroke while we were at Disney. Slingo was staying at Best Friends kennel on Disney property. When the kennel staff realized something was wrong they drove Slingo to the emergency vet in their own car. They stayed until we arrived at the vet-and even stayed with us for awhile. Slingo was alive it this point. She was on “stroke protocol,” and we had to leave but intended to pick her up in the morning to take her to our vet at home. Unfortunately during the night Slingo had another stroke & died. I am glad it was fast & she did not suffer. Disney was amazing-they refunded the kennel, hotel & park tickets. I will never forget their kindness -
