I’m terribly sorry to hear it. We lost our girl a year ago…a house without a dog? A friend posted on my FB “That’s like a garden without flowers.” It was too quiet. We trusted that if/when the time was right, we’d find another dog and we did. Two brothers, in fact.

It’s sad that we won’t have them forever. As Mrs. L says, they’re about the closest thing to unconditional love that we’re going to find.

I’m sorry to hear it, Rebo. Hugs.

He’ll always be in your heart when you go looking for him.
