My dog Rudy

Kimenem,
That's just awful! I'm sorry you had to go through that, thank you for sharing your story.

Kel and Lauramax,
As I read your posts about losing your pets over the last few months I knew in the back of my mind that I would be in your shoes soon. I just wish we could have them forever.

I'm glad you found a new furry friend Kel. I feel like a bad pet-mom right now because I have a golden retreiver and a cat and I'm not "myself" with them right now. They're of course still being well taken care of (spoiled) and I love them, it's just that I want Rudy. I know I will get better.

Everyone else, thank you again for your stories and condolences etc.
Brandi

So sorry for your loss. Hugs to you.

It's been a little over 2 months since our old girl left us. It does get easier, but there are times when tears are still brought to my eyes when thinking of her. You will always miss her, but you will also always have your memories. Right now you remember her how she was the last few weeks because it is so close in your mind, but as time goes on the older, sweeter memories will replace them and you will feel a peace knowing the pleasure that she brought to you over all the years.

I am very sorry to hear this news, Brandi.

The loss is unbearable at first, but I hope your grieving is soon replaced by happy memories and laughter about all the times you shared!

I just got tears in my eyes, I totally understand your loss, we lost our Ralphie a few years back, he was 15, it was the hardest thing, they are like your children/best friend.
I have always believed that a good way to mend a broken heart is to allow more love in--for us it was in the form of a Newfie we named Georgie! My heart goes out to you, I am such an animal lover--I was even a volunteer at our local zoo at one time, surround yourself with those you can lean on-and remember there are alot of us who understand.

You know what? You will see Rudy in your dreams! You will feel that you have had quality time. It's amazing. After almost three years of losing my dear yellow lab Buffett (16 when we had to put him down), I think of him every single day and dream of him often. It's our way of staying connected. I will never ever forget him. My dreams are our way of re-affirming our bond.

Yours in sympathy,

Doria
