And I laughed.

Hang in there, Snotcicles, it won't come around again for another six days.

(11,791 posts)God I miss my dogs so much, the dearly departed and the ones that are at home, oblivious as to where lady human has gone (I'm on a three month research trip).
Dogs are simply the best and their lives are not near long enough.
I wish I hadn't clicked on this thread.

(108,903 posts)the big love of my life is a dog who's not here any more - and i always miss him.

(7,499 posts)I'm a puddle. I knew I was going to bawl, but my love of dogs took over. Lord, how I miss my precious "Nathaniel" (named for Hawthorne), a twelve and a half year old bichon that went to the Rainbow Bridge December 10, 2012. He was my best buddy and showed me constant and unconditional love. I think he read my feelings more than any human ever has. I miss him each and every day.
Thank goodness sweet Duke had a good and loving family. I don't know how they kept it together for his final day, but I am glad they did.
RIP, Duke
