To my FRiends on the 'When I Was a Puppy' thread.
Now you've really done it to me.
Thanks for the PING technochick...
I have one of my silly cats in my lap...
If I misspell something..
It's because she's bonking her head on my hands!

OK. Now I'm tearing up for a different reason. Thanks for the poems. You are right; he was eleven pounds of pure love and devotion. BTW, my daughter's sheltie got a lot of extra attention from "Mom" last night. ;^)
What a surprise to see my Brunna 'resurrected' on FR today! I cannot believe it's only three years (less a week) since he left me. It feels like forever.
I frequently think of your kindness at that sad time, technochick, and of the miracle of this 'Tribute to Brunna'. I read it over from time to time and have shared many of the poems with friends who've lost beloved pets since then.
Eaker, I'm sorry for your loss (Phudd) and for yours, too, Miss Marple. The heartbreak is indescribable and everlasting.
I adopted (rescued) two dogs, Paddy and Sasha, right after Brunna's passing. Although they will never replace him, they have certainly helped.
Two years ago I moved permanently (?) to my 'cottage' - a place Brunna just LOVED - where my dogs now have all the world to run and roam. I am amazed and humbled that they always choose to come home. In this habitat of coyotes, cougars, bears and, yes, hunters, I accept that some day they may not.
Just for today, Lord...
