thanks dhj...I tryed to post some pics,wearing her shades,but cant do it right..

DianaT - 1-7-2011 at 03:06 PM

So very sorry---they never seem to live long enough and yes, it hurts REAL BAD.

Our fur babies give us so much, and I a sure you gave her a wonderful life and there will always be a place in your heart where she lives on.

If you would like her picture posted and cannot do it right now, you can email it to me and I will post it for you. Check you U2U --- but we do need to leave for a while---be back in a couple of hours.

Diana

So Sorry for Your Loss

Gypsy Jan - 1-7-2011 at 07:25 PM

The Nomad board is a good place to share the burden of heartbreak; Nomads have always helped me through the loss of those who steal hearts and enrich the lives of their two-legged caretakers.

This morning, captkw e-mailed the photos of his precious lil tonya --- he said he could take her to any restaurant, tell her to wait, and she would wait out front wearing her glasses.

Lil Tonya, a very special Baja Dog----









DEP precious one as you wait at the rainbow bridge wearying your special glasses.

dog in sunglasses .... classic photos..sorry for your loss.....

toneart - 1-11-2011 at 01:21 PM

I am so sorry for you fur friend loss. Any posts about dogs affect me deeply and sometimes it takes a few days before I can respond. What a cutie your little one was! And those shades...
Now I am going to have to see if Paco will tolerate me putting shades on him and then train him to not knock them off. Well, your photos really gave me a chuckle.

I hope this will give you a chuckle: Our temperature lows are getting down into the low to mid 20s. I bought a dog coat for him because I often have to leave him in the truck at night while I am in town and up to no good. He probably doesn't need it because he has a good natural coat and he doesn't seem to mind the cold. I check him often and he doesn't shiver.

Anyway, last night I put it on him for the first time. He looked really weirded out. I put him in the truck for a few hours and then, when I was ready to go, I took him for a walk to do his business.

Here is the funny part: He looked real nervous. We walked and walked and then I let him off leash in a parking lot. He still looked weirded out. I finally realized that he thinks he can't pee with that coat on (even though they are designed with no part of the coat underneath).
I took it off of him and he ran over to a dirt spot and peed away. Then he jumped around with joy and was very playful...very happy!

Ken Bondy - 1-11-2011 at 02:16 PM

RIP Tonya. One of life's dirtiest tricks - doggie years. Hard to image how they become so important to us, and how we grieve when they die. Here's something I wrote just before losing one of our favorites, our sweet bulldog Rosie:

Being a dog lover all my life, and currently have five Aussie Sheppards....

I am sure that your dog had the life! You sound like a perfect human companion that spoiled the dog left and right ...the way it should be. Sorry for your loss.

Now....there's another little feller that needs you, I bet!

ABSOLUTELY ----too many pups need really good homes and any one of them would be lucky to be adopted by captkw.

That special dog cannot be replaced or duplicated and will always be there-----but there is another pup waiting who is special in his or her own way.

captkw - 1-21-2011 at 06:07 AM

Yep, that is Crissy Beach. Shot three years ago. Melissa is sixteen now and her dog Ayden is having knee surgery next friday.
