Who Cares For A Dog They Have Never Met?
The joy, the devotion and unflagging loyalty of a "best buddy" needs no interpretation. The only consolation I have ever had grieving for a departed
buddy is knowing in my heart I gave them the very best life they could have asked for. Only a dog-lover I guess knows what I am trying to express. My
condolences

You have helped the hurt in my heart and I thank you.

Ah yes, so many of us care about the dog never met because we know so well the beautiful and unconditional love that dog gave to its human companions,
and the pain of losing our precious fur friends. It just hurts so very much.
No matter how many dogs follow and are equally loved, the lost fur baby still occupies a part of our heart and will never be forgotten.
So while I never met your precious Diego, I just know he was special.

MY Thoughts
As a Bigtime dog Dude..I think all us dog folks as Diana,,David and others,, shared also know/feel for anyone that looses a dog..At least I do in my
small mind...I'll take the hole bar on in a fistfight..but get red eyes when I start thinking of my dogs that have crossed That Big Rainbow...lets not
forget..Dogs & dog & baja folks are very,very speciel !!..Guess some get it,,and some dont!!! I'll never forget when a Vet that was about to
retire..Looked me in the eye and said " I understand son,,I've found in my practice that most folks are closer to their, dog than their spouse" MANS
BEST FRIEND ( & Ladys)

So sorry Jan- we recently had to put down our Dakota after nearly 16 years shared as a member of our family. I know the pain and loss you are going
through and extend our most sincere condolences.

Thanks to All Nomads
Who expressed their condolences and shared their own rememberances.
Just one last post - I received a personal email of condolence from the family of "Pickles", the Great Dane that was lost a few years ago when their
trailer overturned on in central Baja on a road in the East Cape, in a very desolate area.
For what it is worth, I have always pictured Pickles finding a new home with other dogs on a ranch and running free in the Baja landscape.

My heart grieves for all people who have lost their doggie pals. They each have their own souls and personalities. We can never forget them. I'm so
sorry for your loss, Jan.

Our pets worm their way into our hearts as only an animal can, and tears fall freer when they die than they do for humans. Yes, we care that Diego
will no longer look at you with unconditional love in his eyes.

Sorry for your loss. Dogs just don't live long enough. Daisy never could catch a rabbit. Maybe she is having better luck in heaven.......
