Condolences on your loss.
A wonderful tribute to your companion. You may be interested in Rainbow Bridge (http://rainbowsbridge.com/). When our little rabbit passed away, we put a memorial there where our friends everywhere could see it online.
15 years is a long time; you were blessed.
A prayer and a hug of comfort for you. I am so sorry, I know how you feel. I lost my Toby in Jan.
REH,
I’m so sorry. My wife and I lost my dog of 12 years at Christmas 2008, and her beloved Sheltie four months ago. We loved your remark about Lola being a “person in a fur suit.”
Prayers going up!

How wonderful for you to have found that of love, affection, and companionship. I pray that you will be blessed again.
She lived a good life and had her best friend at her side when it was time to go. What a wonderful dog!

"Out of all God's creatures, dogs are no doubt the best at teaching us loyalty, being faithful to their masters through both the good times and the bad. Indeed, if we could always be as supportive of each other as our hounds are to us, earth would be a lot more like heaven" --Tom O'Toole, "From Tilly to Eternity."
I am so sorry you lost your furbaby. It is so hard to lose them. :(
Thanks for sharing everything about your dog. Sounds like she was a real blessing, and did so much good in just a few years. R.I.P.
Oh no, Ex-h, I am so truly sorry. Thank you so much for letting me know. Being a cat shelter of sorts, I know how hard it is to lose one, especially after 15 years. They say it’s even harder than to lose humans, in a sense, because the only emotion you ever had with your canine (or feline) companion was love.
I am grieving with you. I will light a candle for dear, beloved Lola today.
I'll say a little prayer for your comfort and healing.
You gave Lola a good doggie life.
I’m very sorry for the loss of your beloved companion
Your tribute is wonderful.
I’m a Fellow sufferer of “lost my best friend” syndrome.
Prayers for you in your grief.
She was beautiful. I can see her personality and how great she was. I am so sorry for your loss. Been there and now we have four rescues that we love dearly.
(They all love air-conditioning and chicken jerkey). Heh.
I felt the same thing after losing “the best dog in the world”,
After a week of crying, I adopted 2 more.
I’m sorry to hear of the loss of your dear friend Lola. Best friends are the hardest to lose. Thanks for telling us the story of Lola. This story tells us a lot about you too.
Yes, that was a great comfort to me...and her last “gift” to me.
