I come from Michele's as well. I am so sorry for your loss. I can remember how it feels and I in time the sorrow you feel in your heart diminishes and is replaced with a warmth brought on by the memories you relive.

My deepest sympathy for your loss. Dogs who are loved are the luckiest dogs of all. Take comfort in knowing that he had a great life with you. If he could somehow see you now, I'm sure he would want to see your heart heal quickly. Do that for him.

I'm sorry about your doggie. I lost two last year, one to cancer and one to old age. I wouldn't wish it on anyone. Big hugs to all of you.
PS - Michele sent me.

I'm here from Michele's - just wanted to express condolences on the loss of your dog. I'd take to my bed for a week, I think, if something happened to either of mine.

I am so very sorry for your loss...in some ways I think the loss of a pet is almost worse than anything else...they are such unconditional lovers and loyal beyond all others, too. What a sad day for you and your family. My heart goes out to you Peaches and Tommy.
Michele sent me, sort of...
