Really hard to have to bury him today, icy cold and gloomy, lots of tears, we had to remove his food bowl, bed, Christmas stocking and gifts also, I realize I took his being here for granted, his loss made me more aware of other things, people, I have also taken for granted , I have learned from his passing.
Sorry to hear Robert, my sons dog passed yesterday. he called my crying a bit. they had her a long time. They are like children and really hurts to lose them.
I lost my Bentley in Oct. From a freak accident . I was at work and couldnt leave . Everytime I see his pic in my phone it rips my heart out . He truly was my best friend . Goodbye my buddy . So sorry Robert my heart goes out to you
May Scrappy always be in your heart.
My pic of Girlie riding shotgun is still my phone’s wallpaper. We all seem to know how hard it can be. They seem to become such a part of the family and us.

I have decided they must be waiting in Heaven for us to come home.
Thank you everyone, its crazy, the emotions are vast, I value all of your replies.
And now I empathize with all your losses as well, never did before, my wife reports the same, tells me of people she knew who lost pets and how she didn’t understand their grief, how does a little dog end up in your heart is still a mystery but I think the answer is somewhere in being human, difficult pill to swallow when you spend your life distancing feelings and being tough, but I think I like it
Love you all, thanks for being here and being my friends, didn’t realize I needed or had any but happy I do
He’s doing great, had to grieve but now have to live on, we’re calling him scrappy also, thought against it at first but no other name came to mind, and there was no denying we were trying to replace him, searching out the closest most likely resemblance, hopefully demeanor too, so here he is, Scrappy II
