I am sorry about your loss of Huckleberry. My friend who lost his doggie earlier this year and now has another doggie, often mixes up their names. It just shows how important the relationship is...and will always be.

I have a 12 year old pupster, Lola who now has arthritis and gets a massage two or three times a month from a massage therapist so she can walk easier and need less pain meds. I can not imagine life without her...so we go day to day and enjoy life !

Old dogs... yeah, my daughter’s dear old Golden is hitting his golden years and it scares me to death. I think it would kill her to lose that dog.

My husband actually had to go the priest for therapy after we lost our old black lab.

People who discount the pain of losing a pet never truly loved a dog.

HA, I turned it over to CNN, the first time I have turned it to that channel since the last debate, and for some reason my cable is messed up on that channel. I can hear it, but I can’t view it!

I have Charter Cable in western Michigan, if this was any other channel I would call and complain, but with CNN blocked, I can deal with that! Early Christmas present I guess.

Yes, and thanks. Sad as it is, Huckleberry is from a long line of dogs I have had and loved since I was a boy. Most of the dogs I’ve had live to between 14-16 years old. I did have one live to 19.

It is always heartbreaking to lose them, but not as bad as never having had them in the first place. They really are part of the family, and faithful guardians of hearth and home.

I have and love dogs as well. I just started my dogs on a no grain dog food and they are doing great.

Lady the Lab is 15 and Sadie the Dalmatian is 11.
