First of all, THANK YOU TONY for the new doggie icon!!
Biggins and Lolli Pop thank you.
Bronx Girl, I totally know what you mean about "no dog will ever replace my Buster". You sound like such loving parents, I hope you get another fur baby soon.
When my dog Brutus had to be euthanized last March (due to a brain tumour), I was devastated. And I had no wish to "replace" him, believe me. Brutus has a place in my heart and I will always miss him. My little dog, Biggins, was also missing his big brother. I felt guilty even considering adopting another dog.
But then Lolli Pop was looking for a good home so I adopted her in April. We are her fifth home. She is 63 lbs of happiness. I am now a firm believer in adopting rescue dogs.
Does Lolli replace Brutus? Never, no way, I still miss Brutus terribly. But now we've got a new member of our family who provides us with unconditional love. She is a much-loved addition to our family, but never a replacement.
