:~(my doggie died yesterday morning and my heart is absolutely breaking, he was coming up for 4 and was a huge part of our family, we fitted in around him, he was so important,after a super day at the beach, he must have found a ball and unfortunately it got stuck in his intestines, the vets did everything they could for him but there was too much damage, so give your dogs an extra cuddle as id give anything to give him a huge hug.

Oh I am so very, very sorry for your loss.:(

All of us who love our pets know the heart wrenching pain you are experiencing just now and there will be lots of love going out to you at this awful, awful time.

In time you will be able to remember your lovely doggie with smiles instead of tears.

Take good care and I will give Benjy, my dog, a cuddle from you.

:~(thank you binbob, that was so lovely, poor Abbi, you will feel the same as we do, my goodness you certainly are a dog lover, my boy was just like having half a dozen though he was a springer so you can imagine how quiet and calm the house is now, he was absolutely full of himself, a real character.

Miss K, I am really feeling for you, just the thought of losing either of my dogs makes me feel a bit choked up. Hope you just remember the good times soon, and less the loss.

I'm really sorry Miss K. I hope you get some comfort from everyone's good wishes. Take care.
when i put the message on the board it was really just to make everyone appreciate their pet just that wee bit more, but i never expected quite the response i have absolutely taken comfort from all the good wishes and PMs i have been sent not just me but the family have, the tears keep flowing even in public ive been reduced to a gibbering wreck, but i dont care thats how much i loved him.

miss k...i hope u are managing to get through ur loss.......i have thought about u.we are still missing our abbi ,but she is in a better place now........running free probably seeing ur lovely springer boy there too.
are u going to have another dog soon???sometimes we feel guilty ,but i do not think we should.another wee dog would be good for u.

even with my 6 other dogs in the house ,things are quiet........so i can just imagine how much ur loss is felt.
u take care.

Sorry for your loss as well Binbob and it doesn't matter how many other dogs you have there will be a gap left which only Abbi would fill but I am sure they are a great comfort to you.
It is so common for us to feel guilt(misplaced) when we lose a much loved pet.
The pain of losing them is the only bad thing about having a pet.
Like you, I believe that they do live on and we will meet them again one day,:D

We have had little Miss ks birthday this weekend and that has kept us busy and focused on her, family up and talking about Jake has helped, he was very missed as everyone could eat without running the risk of their food disappearing:lol: i am in the throws now of thinking about having another dog, the house doesnt feel right without a dog, im still doing my walks which feels such a waste (i could give a dog more than his daily quota of walks), we are moving house in 2 weeks and i think once we are settled then i think we will probably discuss which road to go down, as there a a few options out there. jake will always be in our thoughts but we could offer a doggie a loving home with plenty walks, i know i wont be over jake for a very long time, and i do feel guilty about another dog, but there are so many out there who need a home.

There are many rescue dogs out there who would love a second chance and I am sure Jake would be very proud of you and happy that his sad and untimely passing gave a needy dog a chance at a really good life.

So sorry that Saffi is missing Abbi so much. Try the homeopathic remedy Ignatia as this can really help with grief both in humans and animals.
Lottie obviously loved your Dad very much and she must have been a great comfort to him.
Animals can teach us so much don't you think?

You will never truly get over losing Jake but the raw grief will ease and in it's place will come wonderful memories.
I still can't look at photos of my dog Timmy who died about six years ago but I do think about him and smile.

You could give another poor dog a lovely home and you shouldn't feel at all guilty about this.
It is testament to how lovely a companion Jake was that you want another doggie to share your life with.
Walks just aren't the same on your own are they?

Just give yourself time and, when you are ready, some doggie is going to be very lucky to get such a wonderful home!
