Lost My Good Friend

Thank you so much guys for your nice comments. I didn't relize how difficult this was going to be. I'm not ashamed to say that I have been threw a whole box of kleenex and still using them. I spoke with my father (75 years old) last night about my loss and he to knows what I'm going through. He lost many of dogs but Prince and Duke are the ones that he wants to see again. Thanks a million for all your wonderful heart felt comments.

Loosing a loyal companion is very difficult. We lost our 13.5 year old Bamma girl on Jan.2nd, 2010. On Jan.10th we picked up our new pup... And I drove 3300 km's round trip to get 'em because my wife & I didn't want to fly an 8 week old puppy.

A new pup will never replace the dog you lost, but they do have a way of keeping your mind off the heartache.

Keep your chin up, your pal wouldn't want you to be sad for long.

My heartfelt condolences

Sorry to hear of your loss, I dread the day my buddy of 17 years passes. I do have his younger "brother" to ease the pain though. On the bright side there is nothing like the puppy stage.

Rusty would of been 14 years old on October 6, 2011 but his health failed suddenly overnight and today he went to sleep peacefully and now is in hunters heaven. I celebrated his new life by purchasing a Tim Hortons coffee and taking a ride in the country as we always did to scout for deer. Needless to say a box of kleenex came in handy. Rusty was a Britany Spaniel who always showed love, affection and loyality to me and other hunters. I will miss you old man and hope to see you again when it is my turn.

Sorry to hear about that. Dogs are amazing animals and their passing is always very hard.
 
Very sorry to hear of the loss of your fur friend. I lost mine over a year ago and I still feel sad when I think about it. We got a new pup who's great but I'll always miss the old one.
 
Will Rogers once remarked that if dogs don't go to heaven, when he died, he wanted to go wherever they went.

Sympathy.
 
The Last Battle

If it should be that I grow frail and weak
And pain should keep me from my sleep,
Then will you do what must be done,
For this -- the last battle -- can't be won.
You will be sad I understand,
But don't let grief then stay your hand,
For on this day, more than the rest,
Your love and friendship must stand the test.
We have had so many happy years,
You wouldn't want me to suffer so.
When the time comes, please, let me go.
Take me to where to my needs they'll tend,
Only, stay with me till the end
And hold me firm and speak to me
Until my eyes no longer see.
I know in time you will agree
It is a kindness you do to me.
Although my tail its last has waved,
From pain and suffering I have been saved.
Don't grieve that it must be you
Who has to decide this thing to do;
We've been so close -- we two -- these years,
Don't let your heart hold any tears.
