Good puppy. Good puppy. First time in 30 years we are pupless. The last one nearly did me in so won’t likely be doing it again. Am I a wimp? Yup. I get too damn attached to them. :>)

Puppy breath is the best cure for that kind of broken heart.

I didn't believe it, never have pain like that before, but it's true.

I don't agree; To me its like saying there's to much love in the world. My Hope is over 14 years old now and when she goes it will be like getting stabbed in the heart, but my life was better because of her and I am a better man for she has taught me patience, renewed my joy in simple things like newly fallen snow, piles of leaves and a woodland path untaken and of course Unconditional Love. Sometimes when I look back and wonder how the Lord can forgive me of past wrongs I think of course he can if a little dog can do it why would the Maker of All not be able to!

My Old Jack has a vet appointment today, vets going to make a house call because Old Jack can’t hardly get up even to do his business anymore.
Guess we will find out today if this is going to be my Big Old Boy’s last Christmas with his daddy.

Understood. It has now been 4 days since I said goodbye to our last.

Dude. Get one. The years of love they give are well worth the grief at the end.
