    Very sorry to hear Matt, from what I know of you, I am sure you gave her a life most dogs would envy.
    There was a time I thought all parties that cared for wildlife and habitat conservation could find common ground. I was wrong. Adapt....

    Re: Saying Goodbye...

    So sorry to hear of your loss.

    I cant recall if it was here or on one of the other many forums, but I do remember seeing the posts when you first got her. It seemed she came at a time when you needed her and she clearly gave you her all.

    It it makes me sad to think that such a creature has come and left this world through such a short period of our lives. I hope it gives you some solace to think that myself and others like me have also kept tabs throughout her life and gained joy from watching her grow.

    I think what im trying to say is, thank you. Thank you for all you contribute and for sharing so much, happy and sad. Those of us that are paying attention surely enjoy your contributions.

    I hope the mrs., the remaining pups, and yourself, can find some peace.

    Thumbs up Re: Saying Goodbye...

    Again Thanks Folks.
    We have been through this before, but it never gets any easier...
    The kind words help, and are appreciated!

    A quote from a good Friend this morning:

    Fragile Circle


    We who choose to surround ourselves with lives even more temporary than our own,
    live within a fragile circle, easily and often breached.
    Unable to accept its awful gaps, we still would live no other way.
    We cherish memory as the only certain immortality,
    never fully understanding the necessary plan.

    Damn Straight "We Would Live No Other Way"...

    Cheers,

    I was wrong to think it is going to be easy loosing a Dog until we lost Sparkey last year.

    Just lost my best friend. “Moose”. An old English Bulldog. Not a hunting dog by definition but he didn’t know that. Shed hunting, hiking, elk and deer scouting....he couldn’t get enough of it. His passionate disrespect for bears was truly admirable. I know in my heart he would have laid on the line any time for my wife and I. There’s a huge hole in my heart and home without him.
    A dog is an irreplaceable companion.
