galgrey Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 I still miss him every day. How could it possibly have already been a year? For the past year I've pulled into my driveway to silence. No Cruzito proclaiming, "You're home, you're home"! I open the door to see the girls wagging their tails, but no airs-above-the-ground happy dance greets me. And now that the evenings are growing cooler, no one comes to me to get their pajamas put on. There are no whistle whines and yodels to get my attention when I'm on the phone. And I've not found any shredded tissues on my bed in I can't remember when. Oh, yes ... it's been a year now. He was the consummate mama's boy and the sweetest dog ever. I will miss him always, my galgito.

If I live long enough, all the components of my heart will be dog, and I will become as generous and loving as they are." -- Unknown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest carriej Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Soon it will be 6 months since Freeman left me, and Kowalla not long after. Sometimes I still think I will see them come bounding down the hall. They each had special behaviors, I loved Freeman for his gentleness. He would hop on the couch with me and snuggle for a movie. Kowalla was a big puppy until he left, he would run downstairs and hop up on the futon and watch me work in my 6 foot reef aquarium. He was my buddy, and I have had a hard time spending time down there with the fish tank without him keeping my company. It's almost spoiled the hobby for me. I feel you. It's a terrible place to be.
