      Randy, It is good to hear from you no matter what amount of time passes. I think of you and Remzo and hope you’ll send some more pictures of him. We’d love to see him now. You say it perfectly – the empty sadness. It’s not the acute pain of parting, but a lingering ache that comes when we think of their end of life. It sounds as if you are also able to recall the happy and fun times with Ranger and Axel, and that’s a good way to honor them. You and/or your wife are always welcome to join our monthly group meeting the third Thursday of each month. The links are under “Events”. I look forward to hearing more from you, especially if you open your home and hearts to anothet lucky pup! Sending you my best wishes, and hoping to see more of Renzo. Toni

        Hi everyone. Sorry I haven’t posted in so long. Life is a whirlwind ride sometimes & doesn’t always slow down. It’s coming up on 2 yrs since we lost our 2 German Shepherds in an 8 day span. Also nearly 2 yrs since we adopted another male G.S.D. named Renzo. Truly, time waits for no one. Blink & it’s gone. All is well w/Renzo but I still find myself lost & disheartened when I recall that fateful time in July 2021 when we lost our 2 boys. I smile & remember good, fun times when looking @ their pics while also feeling an empty sadness due to their sudden loss. Renzo has been wonderful as a dog & companion though, so we are thankful for that. We’ve actually considered adopting another G.S.D. (hopefully a white one) since we are so enamored w/the breed. We’ll have to see what the future brings. Any how, hope all the pet lovers & members here are enjoying good times w/your fury friends. Take care all & have a great summer.
