Angela, I’m so sorry to hear about your dog. I completely understand not being able to talk about it. It’s only now that I’m not as teary as I was just thinking about the loss of mine. What has helped is gathering a collection of all the photos we have and creating a screen saver of them. So each time I pass my Mac, I see Jones at one point or another in her life. In one shot in particular, her eyes are so close to the camera looking right at the lens. As I look at her, I swear I have a sense of her peace and it washes over me. It’s overwhelming, but I know that she’s better off, and no longer in pain. I thank you for taking the time to write and wish you the best.

Don’t know that you’ll get this at such a late date, but I just wanted to tell you that my heart goes out to you. You see, my dog, Alpine, a Siberian Husky of 14 years and one month died the next day, Nov. 30 at 2 a.m. I was fortunate enough to be with her when she left. I’d found your website before she died but never had the strength to write till now.
I wanted to thank the reader who sent in the Rudyark Kipling poem, it meant a lot. And I wanted to wish you peace and the happiness of wonderful memories with your love, Jones.

Oh!! This one made me cry. I’m so sorry you lost your pup, but sounds like she had a fantastic, long life.

So sorry about Jones. That was a lovely eulogy to a wonderful pup.

I was admiring your beautiful table ( and food – nevermind the dough) and then came to the end with a heartfelt thud. I am so, so, sorry for the loss of Jones. Those cheerful little faces are so missed, forever, when they leave us. Hugs to you and the family, dear Kelly.

I’m sorry to read of your loss. I hope Jones is in doggie heaven eating up lots of bone treats while going for a ride!
