My baby boy, Chester, who is dancing with his sister Harvey at the Rainbow
Bridge, was definately mentally challenged.  He was the sweetest little guy
you would ever want to know, but man, was he dumb!  As a post.  Once my
mother was playing like she was going to squish his head between a book and
her hand.  He stood up to give her a clear shot!  She looked at me and said
"You're right, he is stupid."
 
He was smart enough to book it to a safe place when he had been bad, though.
Mostly what gave the impression that he was dumb was tht blank, though
adorable, expression on his face that never changed.  If he could have
talked, he would have said "Duh." A sweeter boy never roamed the earth, and
I miss him daily, though it is coming on two years I have been without him.
He loved his mama with all his furry heart.  No one, human or animal, has
ever loved me more.  Remember me, baby boy, and know I love and miss you.
