    Default RIP dopey.

    Well my oldest white tree frog just passed away today. He wasn't doing very well the past couple of weeks and simply passed away while I was at work. I got him from petsmart about 5 maybe 6 years back already pretty big, and blind in one eye. I will never forget the day I got him, helped a lady with a flat tire and got really dirty in the process, went to petsmart and bought him. It was really hot outside and my car didn't have air conditioning because it kept leaking out so I had to keep my windows down. Before heading home I stopped by my friends moms old work at the bank and found out that he wasn't moving and it was really hot and humid in the container petsmart put him in, so we took him out of it and was able to cool him down a bit and revived him. After that got him home safely without anymore problems, and named him shortly after deciding on dopey because a friend and I somehow got into talking about snow white and the seven dwarfs. Thought dopey was a good name for a white tree frog since they tend to be lazy. After awhile when I would call out his name he would croak back. It sucks to see him pass as he was a good frog.

    sorry to hear about the death of Dopey. It's always hard when unexpected and the not knowing what caused it.
