Daily Notes- November 18th

                                          

I saved this picture for today.  Weeks and even months ago.  I knew today would come and he would go.   It was an easy death.  For him.  G and I and our daughter were with him.  The people at the Vet's office were kind and gentle and gave us Time.   I am washing dog towels and crying.

Riley was the kindest, most gentle, sweet dog in the whole Universe.  Parting is such sweet sorrow.
We have so many memories of him.

    I am so sorry for your loss. I have loved your Riley stories. Our Labradoodle will be 11 next month and I know he is getting close to the end of his life. He had IBS and is on a special diet. We have decided he will be our last dog. I just want you to know that I am feeling your loss this morning. (((hugs)))

    My heart aches for you and your family. The loss of a loved one is always sad and when that loved one is a fur baby it seems doubly hard to bear. {{{hugs}}}

    Yes, in his honor, a patch of Law & Order.
    Such steadfast happiness he gave so freely to you and G!
    Sorrow you will, but hold the good times close.
    Much love, hugs through the ether.
