    Bear has been gone since 2014 and Lady has been gone a few years before that. They we’re both old and really sick and had to be put to sleep. They we’re both great loving dogs miss them everyday. I know they’re in a better place and don’t have to suffer anymore. I don’t have pictures of them on my phone just actual photos. Bear was a mix he had German Shepherd and maybe Lab not sure and Lady was a Cocker Spaniel.
      • Kimberly, I have the same picture thing with my pets – I don’t have digital images of some of them and have taken photos of their pictures on my phone, which are sort of okay, but not the same quality. But, the depth of love and joy remain, so the memories are strong. Thank you for sharing with us. If you like, your kind, caring sentiments to others in our community mean a lot if you’ll share those, too. Glad to have you with us, and I look forward to hearing more from you about Bear and Lady. And other pet loves in your life 🙂

        I have no clue what Ryu means but I helped pick it out of a lineup with my sister 😄. I’ll keep you guys updated. Next week he’s going to be on gruel so I’ll have to show you guys the mess he makes as he transitions to a bowl.
          • Yes, do let us see him with his “gruel”. I looked up Ryu and it seems to be a name from Korean and Japanese literature. Cool….

              OH MY GOODNESS! What a special treat to see these pictures. Thank you so much for sharing them with us, Tashawna. Wow-from a little wet thing to a fluffy kitten. That’s so magical. How nice of you to foster this little one. I’m betting you end up being a doting Aunt :-). Please, send us pictures of Ryu regularly so he can grow up with us. Does Ryu mean something? How did he get his name? I am just tickled…..

                    Keeping busy is a good thing, Victoria. How nice that you and Athena have each other. It’s hard to not miss Khan but are you finding your smiles come in memory, before a tear? Keep us posted on how you and Athena are doing, and what you are doing 🙂 Hugs

                      @kimgilmore Hello and welcome, Kim. I am sorry for your loss of Bucky. Are you doing alright? What type of pets was Bucky? May we see photos and hear about your lives together?

                      @kymmy23 Hi Kymmy. Please tell us about Tank, Lucky and Patrick. What kind of pets were they? Do you have pictures we can see? How are you doing?

                    • Toni Noel posted a new activity comment 5 years, 7 months ago

                      Hi Dianne. I don’t want to open wounds, but yesterday was one year for your parting from Bessie and I am thinking of you. I know you are bust getting ready to move, and hopefully that is occupying your time and thoughts. Please, let us know how you are doing. Since you have Bessie’s remains, you might like to check out our Forever in Glass hand-blown pieces. They are a lovely way to keep her with you. With my warmest wishes, Toni.

                        Jamie, good thought about poison. We can’t imagine anyone doing that, but it sure sounds possible that happened to Mariann’s Puddles and Maggie :-(…

Also, our friends at Canine Companions for Independence (CCI) have dogs trained for medical alerts that your husband needs. Please go to the bottom of our page and click “Giving Back”.

                          My son had a Rottweiler that was misdiagnosed also she died 2 weeks after I was told she was poisoned is it possible someone could have thrown something in your yard they could have eaten. I know how bad your hurting and that big empty hole in your heart . I can guarantee you if you take your husband to a shelter and let a dog pick him out you will then begin to heal for your babies know if it wasn’t for you they wouldn’t have had that wonderful loving life and they would approve you finding a new baby to love

                                      Meet Ryu. Ryu is only 3 weeks old now but we got him when he was only a couple hours old. We\’re fostering him for my sister until he\’s old enough. (Who actually birthed this kitten from a stray cat she was taking care of at her job. She is a vet assistant) It\’s been an uphill battle taking care of him but he\’s doing well. The other kittens are getting used to him now too.

                                              Good morning. I live in Los Angeles. Due to my breast cancer and other issues I’m penniless. Shadow really needs her shots and check up. She’s long overdue. Does anybody know of any places near West Los Angeles that may be offering free services right now?

                                                  Toni as of right now we have no answers, Puddles was misdiagnosed with arthritis and given anti-inflammatory and passed away 2 days later. We were told ecoli from dog food and had the dog food and all treats tested…nothing. After Puddles I couldn’t take Maggie that same vet, didn’t trust him…he didn’t even do an exam or run tests 🙁 we had an appointment with another vet the day she passed.
                                                  That vet couldn’t find anything with Maggie and said she was depressed. We searched for another vet but because of the pandemic they aren’t taking new patients. After calling 27 vets (some 2 hours away) I found one to take her and she passed the day before we went. We knew it wasn’t just depression because she wouldn’t eat and was getting bloated, she didn’t act like she was in pain though 🙁 We couldn’t find a place for autopsies so we will forever wonder. We aren’t doing well these two pups were my husbands constant companions after he lost his leg in a farm accident. They are the reason he is still with us. He developed epilepsy 2 years ago and these dogs knew when a seizure was coming on and alerted us. That is the bond that they had with him. They had the same bond with my granddaughter who has a TBI. Sorry so long but needless to say we are devastated. We want another puppy to fill a small part of the gap but are not having any luck finding one.

                                                    This is my Puddles and Maggie watching the bubbles we are blowing for our granddaughter….I don\’t know how we will ever learn to live without either of them much less both of them 🙁

                                                    Rokko is 4 years old. That’s what Vet said on invoice. I did reach out to Tidy Cats about transitioning him. He no longer has UTI, that was three months ago. He did poop in it once after I set it up as I mentioned earlier. He’ll go up to it and smell it, and act like he’s trying to cover his scent that was left after everything stayed in the Breeze Box when I tried adding his waste. After finally getting a box of Arm&Hammer that he’s been using since my sister dropped him off to me last year, I filled up his box he normally uses and then dumped the Breeze pellets from the Breeze box into the Arm&Hammer litter. When I poured out the last of his Arm&Hammer before getting new box, there was some of his urine on the bottom, so I poured it out into the Breeze Box to pass through the drain onto the pad.
