ND Mike We have four cremated in all as well. Our 2 wolfhounds. Our lab shepherd mix who and her companion cat who were put down together, so they share the same box. It was ironic their time came together. We spread some of their ashes at their favorite spots as well.

any person who loves their companions never forgets them you will think of them at times you don’t expect

ND Mike Im so sorry man, hardest days. When we first got Brutus I would joke around that I would get rid of him if it would even please Riggins a little bit. 2 years go by and when a vet dared to ask me if they “lost” him on the surgery if we wanted them to resuscitate him and I told the vet I’d burn down his office if he killed my dog. There is something deeply primal about our relationships with our dogs. I don’t have kids, in some ways my dogs are my kids and when it is “that time” with Riggins I am sure I will be a puddle for weeks.
Jonathon We don’t have kids either and some people don’t understand the attachment we have with our dogs. When I lost one someone said what’s the problem it was just a dog, he was lucky that a very good friend of mine was there and walked the guy away or he would have found out what the big deal was.

craigrice Very true statement, it is amazing what will set off a memory of a dog lost.

I know with my dog, I call her my daughter because I think she loves me more than my own, LOL, I get total love, total acceptance, total loyalty, and total forgiveness. I know of only one other place to find that, but we’ll not get into spiritual relationships.
I have not gone through a loss of a dear pet, but I can only imagine how difficult it will be.

Chef what you say is so true. I never thought of it like that. You could sell t shirts and bumper stickers with that quote. I have lost 4 dogs now, and they all had their own special things about them that could never be replaced, however when you get a new one, it helps to lessen the pain and soon learn what special little thing grabs your heart.

https://poets.org/poem/power-dogDeparting Contestant thanks for sharing. I’ve never read it until now, but I am not surprised how eloquently Kipling describes the love and loyalty of man’s best friend.

before anyone’s dog gets too old you should get another pet and the new one will learn from the older and will know what is expected of them

. And you are right he knows the pain. -
Lost my dog Moxie yesterday. She appears to have died peacefully while she was sleeping. She was 9 1/2 years old and half Lab/half German shorthair. She was the best hunter and dog I have had. They take a big piece of your heart with them when they go. The two pics are when she was a pup and the other one is from about two weeks ago.
ND Mike That is sad, I know she gave you a lot of good years.

craigrice That is a great idea & we have thought of it several times, but our healers would be so singularly loyal, we could just not come to doing it. Still a great idea & we should have as there is no better teacher than a really good friend.
