This is Buster, a really strong little guy that has encephalitis. He is such a champ and we love him so.

Thank you for the add….I\’m hoping this site may help with the grief of losing pets…..
I lost my best friend of nine and a half years named Zeke…..I was visiting my son in Atlanta at the time and had my brother caring for him when I receive this call from my sister saying Zeke died. I was livid! Having never dealt with loss before, it tore me apart. Zeke went out to potty and started barking at a deer in the yard who turned on him and stomped the life out of him. They tried surgery to repair damage, but to no avail. He passed during that night. I miss him every day even though it\’s been five years now. Does it ever get better or easier?
Now, my husband and I lost Sadie due to bone cancer. She started limping on one leg in January of last year. We figured she had a pulled muscle or something, but the vet showed my husband her xray showing bone cancer in that shoulder. We ended up losing her so quickly! It was only a couple of months until she was in so much pain, we had her put to sleep. Right there in our arms, she took her last breath. Why this happens to such great animals, I\’ll never understand.
Thank you for letting me vent. It\’s like I can\’t stop crying for these babies! I know it will get easier in time.
Since losing Zeke five years ago, I\’ve lost my father, my sister and my mother. When will it get easier, I ask?
My husband and I talk about Sadie frequently and always come to tears. I\’m finally able to look at her picture and think of some of the good times with her, but most of the time, I can\’t control the tears! Our other dog, Buster started mourning her along with us. He literally cries like she just left us. Unfortunately, Buster has encephalitis and will not be with us much longer. We cherish every day he\’s still here. I\’m not sure how I\’m going to take losing him too. It\’s so hard! I\’m happy to have found this site where others feel the same way. Thank you for letting me share.
