I know how you feel stick. It is just like losing a child when pet dies. I too buried my Sandy under her favorite tree. And yes, I cried like a baby too.

I am sooo sorry stick.I am very attached to my pets too, I treat them just like the kids-only they get more priveleges. I feel for you both and know how hard it is to lose them.

i am so sorry to hear about jo jo. i know how you feel. last year my brother got a puppy for his birthday and not 3 1/2 months after he got it, he was killed by a guy in a truck, speeding through a neighborhood. it happened in front of his eyes. so i know what you're going through, and though right now you don't even want to consider it, probably, the thing that helped us the most was getting another puppy. he is a trip and i am glad i got him. it will get eaiser. time heals all wounds. and if ya need anything let me know.

I just want to say a big heartfelt THANKS to all of you for your kind words, condolences, prayers, etc... for our loss. It REALLY means a lot to us!

Sorry to hear Stick, nothing is safe trying to cross that highway.
I called home just the other day and my sister informed me that my boxer of 10 years had passed away. Gotta say, it took me a few seconds before I replied. No doubt , mans best friend. they listen when no one else will. They apprciate the pat on the head and return it with a wag of the tail. They are always happy when you come home. God bless em'

So sorry stick...nothing like the unconditional love of a pet...I have cried many tears over my animals over the years - dogs, cats, and one of my favorites, a fox squirell...I feel your pain

It's been almost three weeks since Jo-Jo was killed. I cried like a baby every day for the first week, then every other day for the second week.

I had a dream about him Thursday (I was sleeping days cause I had worked the night before). I dreamed he was standing there and I was brushing him with his Sheddn' Blade as we did so many times before. I was brushing him and rubbing the shed hair off him. The dream was real enough I could almost feel him! Sadly, it was interrupted. I heard something soudned like the garage door opening that awoke me from my dream. I cried again off and on the rest of the evening.

I went out today to get in my truck to run some errands around town. It had been sunny and warm here earlier today. When I got inside my truck, my truck smelled like Jo-Jo on the inside! (He liked to ride in the front of the truck with us when we would let him.) Again, I cried.

I miss our dog. I think about him daily. These special reminders (the dream from Thursday and his smell in my truck today) make his loss a little tougher on me sometimes, but I treasure them!
