Mary,
I rarely get a chance to get on anymore and when I saw this thread my heart sank. I completely understand how you are feeling - and I know the feeling of filling the void. When our beloved Ripper passed I knew how unbearable it was going to be for all of us in the house but especially me since I was the one who was with him 90% of the time. Every person is different and I wanted another right away to love and fill my empty heart - my husband and son wanted to wait. Well the wait wasn't long because we adopted Magnum 2 weeks later - my son had a difficult time with accepting him, my husband liked him but kept a distance for the first month and I fell in love with him the minute I was him. I know I have lots of time with him but this time around I don't know how I will feel about getting another when he passes. I know the love you had with T because Magnum and I have that bond. Know that my heart is with you and that T and Cocoa are running free with our ripper and all of the SCD furkids just waiting for us to be with them again!

I am ready already, but don't know what is available for me at SCD's. My Mollie is despondant and not eating and she has me worried. I know that cocoa and T will always be in my heart and that there will never be another Titan.

Dogs don't know about beginnings, and they don't speculate on matters that occurred before their time.
Dogs also don't know-or at least don't accept-the concept of death.
With no concept of beginnings or endings, dogs probably don't know that for people, having a dog as a life companion provides a streak of light between two eternities of darkness

Mary, I was home sick for most of the weekend and could swear I woke up at one point and felt Munchkin stretched out along my back purring... I know it wasn't any of my other cats as they all sleep at my feet... He's been gone just over 2 months...

Hugs my friend!!! After losing him, and now Bella myself, I know how you feel!!!


Joni- I'm sorry to hear about Bella. I know she wasn't doing well, but it doesn't make it easier to say goodbye. Run free sweet Bella. How is Skitter doing?

Mary- Page has been gone a year and a half and I still wake up and feel her under my legs. I hope I always will, and if that makes me crazy, so be it.

It matters to the one you save.

Mary -

So sorry to hear about the physical problems you personally are having, and then to find that you lost both Titan and Cocoa. I think sometimes God tests us to see how strong we REALLY are. Emotionally, this must be an almost unbearable time. You have to take care of yourself first before you can take care of anyone else. I know, in time, there will be another wonderful Dobe waiting for you to open your heart to. My thoughts and prayers go out to you.

You know Linda after a fusion, etc of 2 discs the restraints a person is on. And I have been working my but off not to think of other things. But time moves on and my babies are becoming wonderful, loving, and fun memories. I laugh at some of their antics all the time. But Titan in the 3 yrs that I had him got me through my brother's death, my step-mom's death, and my back surgery and for that I loved him as a friend

Honoring my 2 furkids-one who gave me 10 and 1/2 yrs and other 3 1/2. Loved them with my whole heart.

That's nice Mary.....they were both so well loved :)
We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare, and the love we can spare. And, in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made.

A special place just as they hold one in your heart. I really love Titan's box; where did you get it.

Thank-you, Jenny. We have missed you on the board. Nice to have you back. You know, I was the lucky one that I was able to have the two of them in my home and earned their love and trust.
I still miss the two of them so much. Just responding to your post brings tears to my eyes. They were great companions. Cocoa for 10 1/2 yrs and T for 3 1/2 yrs. Loved them to pieces.
