Very nice and very true! It's funny too...as with people, you can never "replace" a pet with another. They are each their own soul and personality. Think of the fun it will be when one day you are with them all in one place....sibling rivalry ?

What a beautiful sentiment. It's so true. I have loved all my dogs and after each heartbreaking passing of my faithful companions, I say no more. It hurts too much when they leave. But I always recover quickly and welcome a new furry friend into my heart. Truly unconditional love.

I agree, true unconditional love
Plus the fact that dogs always live in the now with no regrets and no dread.

Charlie, RIP 1992. I will always love Charlie. I still pray that he will run jump up in my arms in heaven. Thanks.
