    I would like to say I miss my ghost he was a great dog and I will miss him the rest of my life and I know he’s with my daughter now once again happy .

    • Dear Sandra, yes, you know you did the best thing for Ghost, the most selfless, loving thing you can ever do is to relieve them from suffering. The passage of time doesn’t lessen the love, but hopefully it allows you to think of the good times and the joy you shared. Is Littman still with you? Please, let us know how you are coming along. I’ll be thinking of you, and am sending you a HUG,

      This is Smokey he died in my arms on december 2, 2020. Im still so lost without him. Had him 10 wonderful years he was my everything
      • Annette, I am sorry you and Smokey had to part. You can see he had a big personality and I understand how empty your home and heart feel. It hasn’t been very long for you and I hope, with time, you find smiles before tears. Was Smokey your only pet, or do you have others for company now?
          • My autistic son has a chiweenie and he is a sweetheart but he is my sons support animal. I have been looking for another furbaby for myself but the adoption fees are way too much for me. I miss smokey so bad!! I have been told that getting another furbaby will help heal my heart so im hoping. Smokey was the first animal ever that stole my heart and showed me the love i would have never known if not for smokey. He was amazing
              • Annette, here are some ideas I hope help you. Go to the “Find Services” tab at the top of our page and there is a drop-down menu which lists animal resources, including rescues and shelters. Enter your zip code to find those in your area. They may have ways to help you adopt. Almost every breed has a “Rescue” organization and may also be able to help you. Spring brings puppies and kittens and shelters may give you a break for adopting a more mature pet. Can you post a notice in your area that you are looking to adopt? Let’s see if others in our community have ideas to help you. Keep us posted on your progress. Good luck, Annette, I think a perfect pal will turn up. Toni

            Although we lost our Rae (Rae Rae) back in January, we are blessed to be getting another female German Shepherd this coming weekend; she’ll be eight weeks old. The name we have picked out for her is Jade.

              @laylaface Hi Kate, and welcome to our caring community. Please tell us about Layla and Jack. What kind of pets were they? How long were you together? How are you doing?

              • Layla was a Shetland Sheepdog. Never left my side. She died when she was 12. Jack was a Yorkshire Terrier, Silky Terrier mix. He looked mostly yorkie. He died a hair over a year ago this month. I swear I still hear him and feel him on my bed. I still haven’t been able to get another dog yet. Someday. Jack will let me know.
                  • Hi again, Kate. It’s good to hear from you, and thank you for telling us more about Layla and Jack. I think it’s nice that Jack’s presence is still with you. Hopefully it comforts you. We all know another love doesn’t “replace” Jack or Layla, it’s an addition to, and expansion of the loves in your life, and only when the doors to your home and heart are ready to open will you welcome that. When it does happen, we hope you’ll share your joy with us, too. Keep us updated, let us know how you are doing, and stay in touch. Toni

                  @princess Bonnie, I am sorry for your losses of cocoa and Rusty. It’s so hard to say goodbye. Are you doing okay? Please tell us about them.

                • Toni Noel posted an update 5 years, 8 months ago

                  @darkeyes Welcome, Rose. Will you tell us about Damien and Bryan? Were they brothers? Do you have pictures we can see? How are you doing?

                • Toni Noel posted an update 5 years, 8 months ago

                  @judipam50 Judi, I am sorry about Tottie. Please tell us about Tottie (boy or girl) …. what type of pet, how long you were together, anything you care to share.

                  Oh no. That is just awful. Keep crying, Elaine – it’s okay, and very understandable. It’s exhausting, isn’t it? Is there something you can do to take your attention for a bit each day?
                    • I try but I loved him so much I cant stand the thought of him being hurt and wondering why I wasnt helping him. My heart is in a million pieces

                      I know, Cathy. There is more room in the pantry where their food is no longer, their favorite blankets aren’t on the furniture …. there is an emptiness without and within. I hope, with time, your heart fills with sweet memories and you find comfort. Let us know how you are coming along. If it would make you feel better, perhaps you could share your kindness and understanding with others in out community. Hugs, Toni

                        For some people, those who hurt animals, absolutely, I raise my hand :-). For those who embrace and love animals, I salute you !!

                            I just lost my Angel last month. She was my shadow for 14 years and 4 months. Angel is a American Eskimo. My heart and house feels empty now.

                                    Elaine, May I ask what happened? What was his name? He is certainly a cutie and I am very sad for your loss. We are here for you. Hugs. Toni

                                            @yoshibear Welcome to our caring community, Jolan. Please tell us about Yoshi and Chubby. If you like, we’d love to see some photos, too. How are you doing?

                                            Wow, Lisa, what a great story. You really express each of their personalities. I can just see Shadow swiping Lucy’s nose – cats definitely know how to explain the hierarchy of the house to a dog! You have certainly had your share of loss, but you keep your home and heart open to more loves. That is so kind of you. Do you now have 4 cats?

                                              Oh yes, Minnie’s fur friends must be missing her, too. It’s very kind of you to care for so many. Please let us know how you are coming along, and when you are ready to share their pictures and stories with us, we will enjoy celebrating them with you. HUGS
