Here is where we can discuss canine cancers and treatment options to create a support system for those dealing with the disease.

:hug3: Joyce. Lenny is still with you, you just can't see him.

My grandson, who a psychic told us is "more sensitive" than other children, said the sweetest thing to me the other night. He was sitting on my bed and just out of the blue said "Vinny gets on your bed and sleeps with you at night, Bubbi. You just can't see him cause he's invisible." I love that kid.

I called Sunny "Vinny" last night when I was calling in the dogs from the backyard. That slip didn't make me cry, it made me smile.

Thank you, Angie.

I have to say, I, as well as many others here, are overwhelmed with the wonderful dogs we have just lost recently. I can't stop crying for us. Lenny, Trouble and now I read about Simon.

I wish I could find the words to comfort all of you, but I can't. I think it's because I can't see through my own tears right now.

Joyce, your words have always brought great comfort to me. I just hope the rest of us who have been where you are now can comfort all of you with our words. ((hugs))

It's been a rough few weeks for everyone-- not just those of us who have lost a part of our families, but everyone else here who sees that and grieves with us.

I know how you feel Suzanne. I miss Trouble as much today as I did the very first day. Thank Dog for all their beautiful memories. :hug3:

I am sorry for your pain, Suzanne. :( I was looking at something on the forum and clicked on an older thread of yours, and there was Sofie's little face, looking at me. I got choaked up, too. She must have been watching down on us from Heaven at those moments.

Some friends of mine had to let their old girl go this week and it's brought back so many memories. I miss my boy. :(

Ugghhh...I love owning them and wouldn't change that. But oh, the hard part is letting them go.

Someone asked me how many dogs I have and I finally choaked out..."three" instead of denying it and saying 4.

Packing and getting ready to move to the country, I went to the corner hutch where I keep Vinny's shrine. I started to cry as I thought, I wish Vinny was here to finally enjoy the country home I had wanted so badly for the dogs for a long time now. He would have had plenty of room to run and a brand new, sturdy fence to keep him safe. I so wish he was still alive to enjoy finally being able to run free again.

Then I thought...he is running free, and I smiled.

I know, Joyce, but it's not the same as physically having him with me. You know what I mean.

I made a special trip to the new house with Vin's shrine all packed up beside me. I put him in a special place there. I feel more comfortable knowing he is at the house now and the rest of us will be there soon too.
