I am so sorry for your loss. His happiness and joy just shines through in the picture you posted of him. I'd love to see some more pictures...

I am so sorry for your loss. There can be no number of years that is long enough to be with our loved ones, we just have to know that we loved them the very best that we could when they were here and that the love will continue after they are gone. As does the love you have for Shazam and she for you. Peace to all, and I hope your happy memories soon bring you smiles.

I'm so sorry for your loss - peace to you and Sweet Pea.

Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear this...may your happy memories of Larry bring you peace and dry your tears.

I'm so sorry for your loss...

to you guys today. Why do they ever have to leave? Hug your boys - they'll send it on to Tex for you...

Every time a pup passes, it is heartbreaking. But there is just something particularly heart-wrenching when they are within a long, skinny nose of their forever homes...Freedom, you were loved. Burn bright in the evening skies, sweet girl.

I'll try to find some but unfortunately, we did not have a digital camera when we had her, so I have very few digital photos. I think there may be a couple on an old computer from a friend, I'm going to try and dig them up tonight... She was marvelous, thanks for asking...

Just thinking about my sweet husky-mix girlie today. It's was 4 years ago that we said good-bye. My good baby doll waited until her daddy wasn't travelling any more and was back home all the time, and then she had to go, had to give in the cancer that had consumed her body, that she hid from us, that we never knew was there. She collapsed but miraculously (the fluid engorging her heart literally just disappeared over night), recovered enough to stay with us one more week, enough time for lots of hugs, kissies, her favourite thing in the whole world,W-A-L-K-S - shorter and slower than normal, but still every time the leash jingled she was there - every treat she wanted in the whole world - and of course, she wanted it all, being a major chow hound! - but not enough time, not enough at all, before the last day, the last phone call, the last hug and kiss, whispering in her ear "I love you, I love you, you're the best girlie ever". She introduced us to greys, the only type of dog she wouldn't try to attack after her knee surgery. Somehow she knew the gentleness of their souls, knew they would not hurt her, so she did not have to hurt them first. I think she would have liked Max... I know she's with my dad, who was her most favourite person in the whole world, so I know she's happy- but I still miss her. Love you, my sweet Kass-iopia, my sassafrass tea, Kasperance, bat-girl...be good, don't bark at the other dogs, give dad a hug for me...

Oh, this is so sad. How heart broke all involved must be...you have my condolences.

What a lovely posting, Maria and what a perfect way to describe the blossoming of a special hound.

What a tragic loss of two beloved pets...comforting thoughts to all of you, there is no blame, not for you, Brad or Rudy. Peace to all of you...

It's so hard, isn't it...so sorry your time was so short with Tex.

I am so sorry for your loss.

Rest in peace, sweet baby girl. May all the love that still lives on for you with those you left behind, lift you high. Peace to Christine.

I'm so sorry for your loss of Twinkle

I'm so sorry to hear this. Please extend my condolences to Finn's human. To lose a pet is beyond devestating. To lose a part of yourself, your life like this, I cannot imagine. You were a very good boy Finn. Watch over your lady.

The Honor System - oh that sounds wonderful...what a way to keep her bitter legacy alive, and maybe to keep safe even just one other pup...I know there are some incredibly artistic people on GT, maybe someone can write something. I would be proud to post it on our site, maybe with Honor's picture, if that would be okay...

I'm so sorry for your loss. Rest in peace and run free, Easy...

What a truly special girl, to come back and let you, Cheryl and all of us know she is well. I hope her visit has brought peace to you, Christine, and all who have been hurting through this. I feel a little better...

I'm so sorry. Getting the ashes of one of our furkids is really a heart-breaking step.
