Lost a great friend

[Blackleaf40]

I'm in the same condition as Caveman right now. I had to put my Chesapeake, Haley, down about 9 months ago. I lost her to cancer, and the grieving continues. A good dog never lives long enough. Appreciate them while they're here

The Great Spirit puts dogs on earth to show us what total, unconditional love is really all about.

I've told many people over the course of my life, I like dogs more than most humans. For a reason.

It's probably for many reasons, but dogs have pure hearts.

"All dogs go to heaven."

The Hebrew word for dog is calev. Where we get the name Caleb. It means "all heart."

They are here for such a very short time and take such an enormous piece of our hearts when they go.

I wish you and your family peace.

Only if you neuter them both, otherwise you will risk having an incest breeding that often will produce inferior offspring.
Don't do it, PLEASE!

Democrat dogs?? Sorry, couldn't resist.

Sorry for your loss. It is never easy, but we keep setting ourselves up for it again. I guess they must be worth it.

My brother in laws mom, well she's names her dog Toby. Very dog. One goes, next one up is named Toby. Not sheeting you. She's a little nutty.
Get another one.

Kind of like momma Robertson on Duck Dynasty, she names em Jessy James..... lol

Wow. The response to this thread is overwhelming.

We don't want anybody to lose they're best friend, and suffer for it! It hurts long and hard. I've lost eleven furry best friends and my best human friend ever! All hurt! But it fades!

Do you think it is a coincidence that dog is God spelled backwards?

So sorry for your loss. I lost my buddy 4 years ago last month. It's a hurt that doesn't heal quickly if ever. I decided to not get another dog because I was traveling so much, but then my son got a sweet chocolate lab about a year and a half ago. I was determined to not get too attached again but what do you do when you're sitting on the couch, and this puppy comes up and uses your lap as a pillow?

I saw this shortly after I lost my pal, hope it helps:

"It came to me that every time I lose a dog they take a piece of my heart with them and every new dog who comes into my life gifts me with a piece of their heart. If I live long enough all of the pieces of my heart will be dog and I will become as generous and loving as they are"
