Loey, I'm so sorry for your loss.
It's sad, yet comforting in a way, to think the dogs that brought us together (and taught us so much) as owners and eventually friends are now crossing the bridge as the years have passed.
Your memories will always serve you well to remember the time spent together, which may have felt like it was really over too fast but in reality, you were always having too much fun each day to think that it could ever end.

Thank you Richard. As you said, we have a special bond with our dogs and we all have a special bond too, and even though we are all busy with our lives, and don't "chat" as much as we used to, if any one of us needed any thing, the other's would rally around them to help, and that is a very comforting thought. ![:D](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v47/SweetSunreyes/biggrin.gif)

Loey, my thoughts are with you. It seems to be a season of losing old friends. Buddy had a good innings, and he lived a life with love. In the end, I guess that's all any of us, animal or human, can hope for.

I'm so sorry Loey. I hope you are doing ok. I'm starting to see this in my not so far off future. It is insane how hard it is... even though she's still here. I am so not looking forward to this.
Take care

Thanks every one.
I still have my "Million Dollar Baby", Kara, and even though the Vet said she is looking at a very healthy 13 yo, (according to blood work etc.) and she does not look or act like the typical 13 yo dog, I can see her starting to go down too.
She's always had her annoying health issues, but now she is beginning to get things the Vet can't diagnose and "lumps & bumps" typical of older dogs, that may be cancer and that have to be removed.
I know at 13 I could lose her at any time and I, too, do not like to think of it because my heart is already breaking at the thought.
When it happens, we all get through it with the help of God and caring friends, but we all wish it didn't have to be this way and we could keep our pets forever.

I'm with you Loey. I can't imagine the day that Kuma will be gone but the last year has made me realize that may be sooner than later. I will be an absolute wreck when it happens.
