Actually the bike had an inch of dust and dirt on it and the wheels were half buried in a woodchuck hole. But it cleaned up nice and started on the third kick, more todo but it's rideable now.
Sorry about your dad and your dog. Had to do the same for one of my dogs, it's one of the hardest things I've ever done, but stupid me, after some time I go and get another one. Dam things just don't live long enough, I'll have to go through it all again. Lol.
