Ed and others have expressed it so well. We have been through this several times ourselves and know the feeling.

Heartfelt condolences to Duffy's family. :sad:

Sorry to read the news, Duffysmom. It's never a good time when a pet passes.

Our condolences to you -

Bill :)

sorry
 

I agree it is sooo hard to speak the words when one losses their beloved pet. They sure don't ask for much but give back sooooo sooo much. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers!

PS. this is esp hard for me since my Sheltie is 17 years old...can't hear and can barely see. She surprises us by always wanting to go for walks though, even if they are not far. Maybe she still has some time left in her.

Also I have always loved the picture you have of Duffy! on your Avatar.

(((HUGS))) I'm soo, soo sorry.

I've sent you a PM. Those of us who are dog lovers feel your pain, and have you and your husband in their hearts.

More condolences. It's always tough to lose a family member, especially the unconditional love ones...

"Rescuing Sprite: A Dog Lover's Story Of Joy And Anguish" by Mark Levin might be of interest, and value, to you......

Duffy's Mom, we're sorry for your loss. We also lost our Isabelle about eight years ago and thinking of her still brings us tears. It's not an easy loss to get over, and as others here have said, we share your pain.

It's so heartbreaking to lose a furry family member. Grief is the price we pay for love. So sorry for this great loss. Duffy will live in your heart forever.

My heart goes out to you. Only those of us who have loved and lost a beloved pet can fully understand how you feel. We are SO blessed to be given these wonderful creatures to share our lives with and Duffy was lucky to have you. Duffy will always be with you, in your heart.

I'm so sorry. Please know that I feel your pain and know firsthand what you are going through. You are in my thoughts. Wish I lived nearby so I could give you a hug.

We are so very sorry for your loss. I have only had one dog and when we lost him, the devastation was unreal. They become part of your family. At least he had love with you and will be in your heart forever!

So sorry to hear of the loss of your beloved Duffy. We went through that last March when we lost our beloved dog Katie who was with us 17 1/2yrs. Time may slowly heal but you never forget the company they were to us.

I am so sorry for your loss. It's amazing how much space our four footed family members take up in our homes. When they are gone, the house feels so empty and the silence is deafening. Peace to you and I hope Duffy is enjoying "cookie Heaven" as we call it in our family.

I am so sorry for your loss. I know exactly how you feel and the big hole that is now in your heart. We lost our pug Chester last year and I am wiping away the tears as I write this note. Not a day goes by that my wife and I dont mention his name and reflect on some of the funny things he did to entertain us.
