A WORLD WITH OUT YOU……ROTTWEILER POEM

SARG AT 3 YEARS

SARG AT 3 YEARS

SARG AT 3 YEARS

SARG AT 8 WEEKS

GUNTHER AT 12 WEEKS

GUNTHER AT 9 MONTHS

I SAW THIS ON THE INTERNET AND FOR THIS ONE YOU WILL NEED A BOX OF TISSUES.

WHEN I READ THIS I CRIED AS IT REMINDED ME OF MY BEST MATE OF 13 YEARS. HE PASSED AWAY JUST OVER TWO YEARS AGO. HIS NAME WAS SARG AND HE WAS MY HERO. ATTACHED IS PHOTO OF HIM WHEN HE WAS 3 YEARS OLD AND AT 8 WEEKS OF AGE.

AND THE SECOND PICTURE IS MY CURRENT ROTTWEILER AND HIS NAME IS GUNTHER AND HE IS 9 MONTHS OLD NOW. THEY JUST LOOK THE SAME. IT’S LIKE REALLY WEIRD BECAUSE GUNTHER IS SO LIKE MY PREVIOUS ROTTWEILER.

This is to all of you that have lost a beloved friend

A WORLD WITHOUT YOU………..

I went outside this morning, and nothing was the same

You didn’t greet me this time when I called your name

For the first time in a long time, the paper wasn’t torn

The world is so different, all I do is mourn

I left a bowl of food for you, that I know you’ll never eat

The yard outside sits alone, and will no longer feel your feet

Your frisbee is laying on the porch, the holes you dug are still there

Your doggy brush is by the door, your toys are everywhere

Your leash is waiting by the gate for the walk we just can’t take

All the memories of you I see, as my heart begins to break

As I stood there and thought of you, a tear dropped from my eye

I never thought the day would come, the day that you would die

As the tears rolled down my face, I dropped to my knees in sorrow

I can barely face today, how will I feel tomorrow?

As I buried my face in my hands, I bawled like never before

When I was done, I took a breath, and walked back in the door

I got dressed and went to work, I dreaded coming home

Who would be there to greet me? Now I face the world alone

Now I lay here in my bed, all the world is dark

It is way too quiet outside, I long for just one more bark

Please come tackle me one more time, and track mud on the floor

Drool all over my toes again, chew up a sock once more

Come and lick my tears away, let me touch your fur

I want to see your soft brown eyes, I want things the way they were
As I cry myself to sleep, I remember as I close my lids

Tomorrow is a closer day, that we meet at the Rainbow Bridge…

my gift to you i still miss you so much NEW
by: jeana shippey

Nearly two years have passed by, when i had to say goodbye to you, due to bone cancer, you fought this long and hard for over nine months, it was an awful year 2015, as we got told in Jan of that year in the first week that you had cancer, then the following week we lost my mother your 2nd Mum…it was so very had for us all, The night before my mum passed, you ran into her bedroom and just laid by her side all night till morning, you walked out and never went back in, as if you knew and you said your goodbyes.my mum died later that day…Rocky you were such a lovely gentleman, with kindness through and through..such a brave boy to fight for nine months, but you looked at me with a look that i knew, you were ready to go now, this was on my birthday so i had to get the vet out to our house, and let you go i wanted to give you a final gift to get you free of pain, you laid in my arms, and as you were leaving i told you I LOVED YOU SO MUCH, you drew your last breath and i knew then you had left me….in spirit, but you are everywhere in my mind heart and soul…my darling boy i love and still miss you so very much RIP XX

My Madee NEW
by: Connie

Last night I let Madee go, in her favorite spot in the backyard. She was 11 years & 7 months and was battling bone cancer. I made the decision before it became devastating to her and she still had that spark of life that I cherished about her. Today her brother Sam and I are just void and crumbling. Her absence from our home is overwhelming and dismal. I don’t know how we will ever feel the sparkle that she provided again. There are too many attributes about her to write here…but I know each of you understand. I am trying hard to picture her free of pain and running and playing and happy. She was my 5th Rottie and the one with the most mischief. She made our home secure and right.
God bless all of us you have lost our best friends.

My rottie NEW

Yesterday I had to make that hard decision to let my best friend go with dignity. He was my child and I feel so devastated. I know that it wasn’t fair to him to make him stay because I wasn’t ready but I feel very broke right now.

We lost our beloved Eva NEW
by: Kevin

On Sept 9th 2016 our family lost our beloved Eva, our “Puppy Girl” to a very aggressive bone cancer that seemed to come out of nowhere. Eva would have turned 9 this Dec. Words can’t describe what a beautiful and amazing girl she was or the grief we all feel having lost such an irreplaceable member of our family. Thank you for all your love Eva, we love you and miss you. You are one of a kind Puppy Girl…

devastated NEW
by: Anonymous

My beautiful girl died this morning. She was almost 11 years old.
I’ve spent the day sobbing and now my head hurts.
I held her as she died and told her she could go.
She shuddered and her breathing stopped.
My house is too quiet and I can’t believe she is gone. Why God? Why? I’ll never hear her bark at the mailman again or see her little stub of a tail wag when Id come home.

Loosing max* NEW
by: Anonymous

I lost my 5 month old rottweiler max today. He was the funniest dog and we didn’t get even come close to enough time with him. My whole heart is broken. He chewed wood off my porch and it damaged his gi tract and from the point of a huge chunk of wood coming up it was down hill from there. 2 days later he was taken from our family, way to soon. Max was a silly and goofy dog that in the beginning I really didn’t want but I grew to love him and care for him. Loosing an animal is just like loosing a member of your family. This poem was perfect for him, thank you to whoever took the time to write it down to help those of us who are experiencing the same thing and the same sorrow.

R.I.P Beamer Boy NEW
by: Darryl

This poem and seeing all the comments is exactly how I feel as less then 24hours ago on March 10, 2016 my nearly 7month old Rottie whose name was Beamer(like the car) passed away he strangled himself. My innocent boy had to go so young. He died but just being a puppy and not knowing any better about the dangerous things he attempts while no one is around. He was a gentle giant and literally everyone who ever met him can vouche for that he will always be my boy and even tho someday I’ll own another I’ll never forget him and he will always be my FAVORITE. I love you Beamer!!

Luchi NEW
by: Shaun Duke

As I lay in bed in bed with tears rolling down my face. I heard a strange noise and for the first time in 12 years there is no Luchi waiting at the bottom of the stairs as curious as I was. She was the rock of our family. The smile that greeted us every morning and reminded everyone she was there for us all. I won’t get to hear “mornin LaLa” (the nickname my 2yr old gave her) as we walk down Sat mornings. She was a huge part of my family and will be forever missed. Her blanket was folded up and her bowl put away but that is one baby girl that will always be with us. R.I.P. Luchi Girl. Ill see you on the rainbow bridge. Ill look for that smile.

I am so sorry! NEW
by: Lillee

My deepest condolences in the loss of your beautiful rotty. I know your pain, as I lost the gentle bear love of my life, Kenay, August 22, 2014. Kenay was an almost 10 year old rottweiler that I still cannot believe is gone. Your rotty knows your love & honestly isn’t gone. You may not ‘see’ your royyu, but he IS there. I know it is hard to believe now, but there will come a time when you think of your rotty & smile instead of cry. Please find comfort in knowing that your rotty is now at Rainbows Bridge and making lots of friends. Saying goodbye is never easy.
The lessons of life that they teach us are above any price and the love they share cannot be fathomed by those that have never opened their hearts to a true friend we have been given. My Kenay went to Rainbow Bridge when he was almost 10. There are no more aches or pains. No more rain only sunshine. Running and playing all day with the other furbabies. One day we will join them again for all eternity at Rainbow Bridge.
Lillee.

Big Girl Cookie NEW
by: Anonymous

I just lost my 10 year old Rottweiler. Her back had fused together and she was in extreme pain.
I am utterly heart broken. I never imaged a day with out her. I knew she was slowing down, and she was such a trooper. She would still try to walk with me and her buddy( a jack Russell). I want to rejoice in the love and companionship she gave me. Rottweilers are such a special breed. A well loved and trained Rottweiler is the sweetest blessing. I am so grateful for having her for 10 incredible years. She is dearly missed by myself and Bandit.
As a dear friend said to me as I made such a hard decision to let her be free, he said “you are her Shepherd, you must do right by her.”

Trying not to be sad, bc she gave me so many happy days. And she is well loved in the big dog park in the sky.

tears and smiles at the memories NEW
by: Yanz

In my heart I always had a rottie called Ella, but it took 30years before I finally had you to hold, to train, to love even more than I had thought possible. After so long of dreaming I thought there may be an anti-climax – reality can’t live up to fantasy – but I was wrong. You were everything I had dreamed and somehow so much more. The poster girl rottie, the antithesis of the media rottie. Everyone loved you almost as much as you loved everyone.

You were our life, you made everything better until just 15 short months after you charged and tumbled your way into our world you left us. You were just 17 months old, you were full of life and joy, but then you just had a nap one afternoon and didn’t wake up. Your dad had taken the day of work to be with you and had just popped out to buy some materials to build you a posh grown up bed for the living room. You had a lovely walk with your dog walker and were home alone for just 20 minutes after your walk before your dad got back and found you. He rushed you to the vets,they tried, they really tried. But you had lived such a full life in your short one it was your time.

Three months on we cry most days. Your toys are still around, your beds not stored away. Your paw print stains are still on the carpet and on the backdoor because we can’t bear to wash you away. Your best friend margs still runs up to any rottie she sees hoping it is you, sad and confused when it isn’t. Our hearts are still breaking over losing you so soon, so young, so unexpectedly.

We love you, we miss you, but we know we will see you again xxx

Missing. Cheyanne NEW
by: Suzanne

My beautiful Cheyanne how I miss you. I did not know how sick you were until it was to late. You never let it show how much pain you must have been in. Kidney and liver failure was what the vet said that day you were feeling bad. They said you had about a year left. Then the xrays came back with cancer. Your whole body was cancer ridden. There was nothing they could do. After a week at the vets they sent you home to die. That would be your last night at home. Early Sunday morning on February 8 2015 you took your last breath. My world fell apart. There is not a day goes by I do not cry for you. Oh baby I am so sorry I didn’t know how sick u were. I should have known. Thank you for 9 wonderful years. You will always be my Big Fat Walrus. That was your nick name. I also called you Big Fat Chey. Wait for mama at the bridge. I love ypu Cheyanne. I will miss u forever.

My sweet girl Sammy…where does the time go? NEW
by: Dan Morrow

My rottie Samantha passed this past St. Patty’s day at 10 years old with complications from lung cancer. It was so sudden, and putting her to sleep to stop her pain was the hardest thing I’ve ever been through. I was there when she entered the world, and was holding her when she left it. I never imagined there could be such a bond, such a love, such an amazing journey to be shared with owning a rottweiler. A dog with so much love to give, with such a tender heart. My baby girl, you must have been sent to me from above, to seek me through those moments in my life when i felt alone and defeated. It sure is quiet now; your not there to follow behind me to bed, to lay your head in my lap; to start a new day. It’s the little things I already miss. You umderstood me, probably better than I could, just the way you looked at me sometimes. You will always have my heart my Sam. Where does the time go my sweet girl….Thank you for all the love you had to give.

Sky my love NEW
by: Anonymous

My crust eater
My fish feeder
Spoon licker
Taking me for walks
And giving me those eyes
Oh that precious face
How I miss that face
Rubbing that face against my thigh
Playing with those ever so soft ears
Always in our place
But now your in that special place
Soon I will think of you with
A smile on my face
Who loves love

I have not adjusted …i read many storys of love,dogs love and loss which is where it all ends.ApIC OF MY SOULMATE IS NEVER FAR FROM MY reach and my heart. I read a story about man who could never have another in his life,since he had the best…I feel i am likewise tho i ponder about how it would be with a new puppy and only think of the guilt of the things i did wrong with the Only Love i have ever known or will know…Buddy i love you and will always love you,cause you see you looked for me and found me,but you grew tired as i am now….Please wait for me!!!

When your soul cry …. Who can comfort it !!! Maybe just the tears streaming down on your cheeks …. and pours over your chest burned by pain. NEW
by: Lillee


I’m sad, so sad that I feel like dying inside.
Kenay, my beloved rottweiler, my good friend, my beloved boy, my gentle bear are gone, it’s been 19 days and I can not, I can not conceive it.
It’s so hard without him, my body feel heavy, as it crushed me, my mind is numb, I can not breathe, I want to scream, I cry incessantly.
What can I do?!?! Already aware that this moment would come, I knew that I will suffer, but not yet ready for it, do not think I will ever be.
On June 24 was operated by granuloma, surgery went perfectly recovered well from anesthesia and was lively, eat, play, indulge himself like a puppy again, all lasted a month, then granuloma started to grow and develops rapidly, I read the pain in his beautiful hazel eyes, barely able to stand, sat on one side, breathing increasingly difficult or unable to sleep.
On August 18th went to treatment, hard went up in the car and came down harder, would be made a puncture again to see what happens with that hard formation that grew rapidly.
On August 19, he could???t raise the treatment was give at home, he hardly lift and walk a few minutes, hardly eat ,shaking on his legs if sitting down, he could???t rise no more.
On August 20 veterinarians, (that he knows him when he have only 5 weeks) told us with trembling voice that has big pain and can not do Anything, that has metastasized throughout the body and is assigned as the lungs.
We raise him up and stumbled coming out in the yard, standing a little and sat, unable to breathe, weak, and his gentle eyes sunken in their orbits…. he could???t eat I was giving him from my hand and he not wanted, occasionally drink some water …… I did not know what to do, I could???t take the decision, no … ..but, we decided that it is better for him if we let him go, while he still can, (even if with our help) to stand up on his own legs.
On August 21, he not want to drink water veterinarian came every day he was treated and was fed and hydrated with injections, I sat next to him all the time, day and night, comfort him, it seems that like that I caress him I esasy his pain, breathe more smoothly when I petting, when he feel my hands on him.
On the morning of August 22, we prepared the car and barely put him on the back of the car, I was lying beside him all the way to Snagov, I held and cuddled I was calm, he liked very much to walk away, to go on trips and vacations.
We arrived at Snagov same time with veterinary doctor, we took him in our arms and got him out of the car, we helped him up and himself came into the big yard, the yard which he liked very much, the yard were he run and enjoy every time we went there.
He entered the yard, rocking slightly, but was still worth going slowly, walked, smelled the flowers, sniffed and looked into the distance to the lake, sat with us like if he had no pain, lighten his face Then … at some time moment came, I hugged him,barely control myself, I wanted not to cry, to give him courage …. and smooth easy, he fell asleep in few seconds, I caressed and I???ll talked to him whole time and even after … So serene, he seemed asleep,… I told him ” sleep tight ” and then we put him in the bed that he would sleep forever. It is close to the lake, under the old walnut trees, in the morning sun shine and heats him on his eternal bed, during the day… is shadow … ..
I do not know, I blame myself because I did this, although I aware of his suffering, crying, every corner of the house and yard reminds me of him, ???Kynoaca baloaca??? (we used to spoiled him like that ), my dear boy, my soul, my angel … ..l can take his stuff, toys … leash and collar are in place, his crib is in the same place, beside my part of bed, I can not clean … I can not do anything … crying … and crying …
Kenay, mommy loves you boy, I miss you Kenay , I die of longing for you …
Ohhhhhhhhhhh, hurts so much..

I am so sorry for your pain.
I will tell you what others told me…go to Rainbow bridge.
It Helped ME alot and i have many moments still i cannot endure..but God and my Dog buddy help me each day.
I look at puppy pics and pics of puppies on utube alot but nothing will help much except your love for your companion.
My Buddy was 11 when i had to make the decision. He was sick with Kidney disfunction for 7 months and we were lucky we had that long. Healing is slow but you will only recover when you are united with God and your soulmate for this is what my buddy is and im sure yours is to..I pray for your peace and also for your misery to be small. Kenay R.i.p.

Lost my little girl today… NEW

Today I lost a wonderful companion, she was so full of life and loved to share it with me and the family. I regret taking you with me and will never forgive myself for doing what i did. I did everything in my power to save you but I wasn’t strong enough to save you today. I can’t believe you’re not at my side for first time in a long time, and I don’t know how we will go on without you. I only wish I could take this day back and have a second chance….I am sorry Bella. I love you very much little angel…

My Life NEW

Today… i start my day with prayer assuming things are a little better,but it is only dormant. My Best friend and love is buddy while he has been at the Bridge for 3 months and 3 days my heart is still broken but healing. I am now in a situation where i cannot share my life with another Rott i am so thankful Buddy was in my life and taught me so many things. One day i will mend but i suppose it will not be till i am with YOU Buddy. The days are short and the nights are very long…
I smell your leash, your bowls are out but empty. My Sister says you are with her daughter who was waiting for you.
Your body grew weaker over the months as we did the special food and pills only for a last blood test. I only wish i had slowed down and gave you all of my time in the end but now at least i know you are always with me no matter if i journey to the Desert or the Oasis. Like i said to you my friend as you breathed on earth your last ….Wait for me boy! i love you!!!!

Gods Grace NEW

There is nothing i can say or add to this.
I have had much los this month.
From Divorce,to my best friend Buddy and now my mother awaits the same Journey as my Buddy.
The days Get a little better but when i come home it hurts so bad that life has no meaning for me.I look at utube pics of rotty pups remembering our times,but little helps. I am single now and little hope of raising another Rottwiler while it takes two. I remember before i wa lucky enough to be Blessed with my dog and Companion i use to pray for a wife to help with the Raising of a new special friend..then she passed and it was Buddy and me for 10 years or so,now he has joined her and i am still here.. I know your Pain is immense and nothing can comfort you but i only ask daily if you read rainbow bridge it will help you all with Hope. God Bless your Family and your beloved partner who is with Christ and those who have gone before you waiting for the day you join Him or her.!!!xoxoxoxox

My FRIEND NEW
by: william

I lost my only and best friend this memorial day. After reading this poem..i wonder how i can continue.I complainded constantly of hair everywhere in my trailer,now i want to collect what is left.It has been 8 days now since i said yes .
His head laid in my hand as i reafirmed hissafety and my last words before the drug hit him I begged him to wait for me…
Nowas well as trying to please God so i can come to him when its my turn to leave here,I try to live for Buddy because if i cannot spend Eternity with him as well,id as soon be in darkness. I pray everyday for strength but mostly for my broken-ness and all those who have lost their companion but much more than that. For 11 years my life was about my dog..while i am a Christian my heart went when my dog breathed his last..cause you see he breathed for me and now Hope to live for my friend and Love AKA BUDDY- DANTE..
He was the runt of the litter but had the biggest heart and loved all people..He is dearly missed by all..The bark was loud but his kisses are sweet! Rest my friend cause soon we will wlk together. I love you..

My rotty NEW
by: Anonymous

Reading this poem makes my heart ache as our rottweiler of 11 suddenly become ill within a week then diagnosed with cancer and too late to operate. Letting him go is the hardest decision I have ever made and probably ever will. Just trying to imagine life without him seems impossible. How can I ever say goodbye to my boy. One of the most affectionate, friendly and loving rottweilers you will ever find. I will miss him so much and forever love him. Wonder how I will ever cope without him.

I lost my 4 year old Rotty last Thursday, he at the remote control to my air conditioner and I didn’t realize till it was to late. They said if I did the surgery there was a 90 percent chance he would die…so I made that hard decision to end his pain.. His Doberman sister has been crying for him all week and so are my kids and I. I know one day we will see him over the Rainbow Bridge

Hello, and oh my StarClan. NEW
by: Acme Rep

I read this and thought about my Rotts I lost. Ones name was Koda and the other, Neko.
They were shot and killed by a bad man.
Neko was 7, and Koda was 1 year and 2 months. He shot them both and it was sad. Labor Day weekend three years ago I lost my dogs.
Kodas favorite toy was found, and we cried. This poem makes me smile and remember them.

In honor of baby girl Sadie NEW
by: Susan

I came across this site tonight and felt the need to share and honor my beautiful rottweiler Sadie. I lost my best friend 3 weeks ago. I am devasted completely. Sadie was the girl I came home to for 12 years. I got her when she was 8 weeks and she was more than a pet she was family. I miss her barks, I miss her kisses, I miss her getting into the trash and walking by me with a paper towel and candy wrapper in her mouth waiting for me to scold her and chase her around trying to get it out of her mouth. I miss her sleeping with me, I miss everything about her. My world feel so empty. I come home and cry every night for her. I grab the box with her remains and tell her how sorry I am I could not save her this time. I beg for her to come back. Putting Sadie down was the hardest thing I ever had to do. Sadie had cushing’s and than nasal carcinoma, renal failure, and than I am not sure what breathing issues. I prayed she would bounce back and miracle would happen. well it did not. I am so depressed and so lonely without her when I come home. I talk to her every night. Rest in Peace my Sadie Boo. I will never love another dog as much as you.

Losing your soul mate NEW
by: Lina

It is the hardest part when you do lose a soul mate.

When I lost my boy at the age of 13 years I was devastated and I could not find another like him. He was my body guard and my best friend. He would light up my day when I was sad and he would make me laugh when I was down. Rottweilers are just so amazing and they will touch your heart in a very special way and only the ones that understand is the one’s that owns them. I now have one who is 3 years old and I love him so much….just like a teddy bear. He adores my 4 year old son and will protect him from harm even from an ant…lol.

I have had other breeds in my life but nothing compares to a big and beautiful Rottweiler….and I’m sure thousands would agree….

My prays go out to all the loving Rottweiler families who has lost their dog and wish you could find your soul mate again…..

loss of our Rottweiler NEW

There are NO words , we lost one of our Rotties yesterday. She was only a few days of her 8th birthday. I believe loosing a Dog like her is just about as bad as loosing a human. We got her & her sister the same day & her sister mourns for her since her passing 11-18-12. RIP Sage

My Maggie Girl NEW
by: Anonymous

This poem says it all. I put Maggie my precious girl to sleep just two day ago 10-22-2012 due to numerous health issues. She was almost 13 yrs. old. I had her since she was 6 weeks old. Rotties are the most loving, sincere, loyal dogs you could ever own. Although words cannot even begin to express the sadness I am experiencing right now, I know the 12+ years I was able to spend with her makes me the luckiest girl in the world. Until we meet again…Maggie I love you and you will forever live in my heart.

SAM NEW
by: Anonymous

One can only understand after having been Owned by a Rottweiler!
I had Sam from 7 weeks to almost 11 years. I lost him to Oral Melanoma 4 days before Christmas last year. This loss has been the most painful I have ever endured. Though I am able to cope most of the time, there are still times when I just can’t help it and after reading this poem was one of them! Absolutely awesome and so so true!

i understand.i love my rott for 11 years! NEW

coMy female rott named deeken. Was my baby! I spoiled her as she was truely my baby until I had my daughter. I made sure to go out of my way to make sure deeken knew she was still very important to me everyday & in return she was the definition of LOYAL. She protected my family,our property…our car!;-)she was my big moose & I miss her now more then ever.she past away a year ago.I got her certified as a service dog for me & elderly people I would take care of.I wish people would see how the breed really is before they ban them.she was so sweet to my daughter & a big goof ball yet @ the same time,she wouldn’t let anyone mess with us.what more can u ask for?plus she was great @ tracking.she past away from cancer after 11 yrs.

the rottie poem
by: bogeyp38

if people were only as kind and loving as my three rotts,”Alf”, “Hunter”, and Sugarbear…I had Alf for nearly 14 yrs and he was such a bigboy, Hunter was a rescue service dog, and such a lover…Sugarbear was my best friend ever, a found full blood female, house trained, groomed and beautiful..no chip, no collar, no signs or ads.. so at that she was mine, but just for a short time..I thought she would be with me for a very long time. appx six months after getting her something started bleeding internally, the best vets in oklahoma were sending reports to college clinics, catscans and transfusions…i maxed the card, then sold my motorcycle to continue…didnt matter… so i certainly understand the empty feeling of this world everyday…this poem hit so hard…gotta go, ron p.s. best wishes to all the rotties and their people

My sweet Brock…
by: Anonymous

That is so sad…

My Rottie, Brock is 14 1/2 and has neurological issues so he walks sloppy and doesn’t go up and down stairs so much anymore. I know he won’t be with us for too much longer but I enjoy every day that I have with him. He has been a truly loyal best friend. The vet says that he is not in any pain but eventually his rear legs will give out… He is healthy otherwise. I asked the vet, “Would you put him down?” and he said he wouldn’t. I love my dear Brock; he is an awesome dog and I’m so happy we adopted him.

Crying now
by: Jax’s Mom

That broke my heart. I brought my baby home at 5 weeks. I was against a Rottie – I will be honest. I had two cats and was scared. I was naive and didn’t know how great these dogs were. Jax crept into my heart quickly. I was determined to have him sleep in a crate. He would cry and I put him on my chest. By week two, he was permnanently on my chest. To this day, he still snuggles on me and lays on top of me.

His eyes are the sweetest eyes I have ever seen and he seems to know so much. I can’t imagine the day when I no longer have him. I honestly think about it a lot. Since he was about 8 weeks old and I fell in love. I worried about everything. I know they don’t have the longest life spans.

He is almost three now. I guess the best we can do is to make their lives as happy as possible while we have them. We are here for them, no vice versa. Inadvertently, they end up taking care of us, too. letting us cry into their fur. Licking us when we are down and out.

Thank you for posting this. I am sorry about your loss. I am sure you miss your dog every day. I know when the time comes, I will never get over it. 🙁

Jax’s mom
