Gutted



My good friend Sara, with more experience in these things than any one person should have, emailed me, "Good dogs . . . lots and lots of great days and one really bad one." I keep repeating this to myself. Yes, lots and lots of great days....

    When you give your heart to a pet - dog or cat - it is a heart break just waiting in the wings - in the back stage of your life. And yet it is so worth it to have that little soul with you for the time God gave him because they give sooo much more that the heart break they cause.

    What a beautiful little puppy he ways.

    Heart aches for you. Tears.

    It's never easy. And sometimes very hard. He was such a good boy. And such a handsome fellow. Tears this morning reading this. So, so sorry.

    I can only echo your word - Gutted. So deeply woven into our lives, our animals become one with us, and we with them. We are all the better for it - and hurt together when we must endure their losses. May our Lord's peace be with you.

    It seems the older we get the more we have to deal with this sort of thing. When I hear of someone going thru this, I find my emotions about my pup are still very close to the surface. Prayers and hugs and hopes that good memories outweigh the sad ones.

    And this is the hardest part of loving them so much - - that final goodbye. So very sorry for the loss of your sweet boy. Once some of the heartbreak subsides, you will have all the beautiful memories of him to console you.

    I understand your loss, Michelle. Jackson was such a beautiful boy... God gives us our furbabies for special reasons, even though we may not understand the whole thing. I'm thankful you had Jackson. I know he was a treasure!

    So sad to read this post. Please remember when a treasure becomes a memory, the memories then become the treasures.

    I'm so, so sorry. We have lost many precious dog friends over the years, 3 in the past 4 years. They give so much love.
