Good Bye to a Beloved Friend
A Letter from Diego, the Rottweiler, to Dad and Mom
“Do you see the way my dark brown eyes look at yours? They are slightly cloudy now. That comes with age.
The gray hairs are beginning to ring my soft muzzle. You smile at me; I see love in your eyes.
What do you see in mine? Do you see a spirit, a soul inside who loves you as no other could in the world? That is all I ask.
And still the love is always there, even when we take that long sleep, to run free in distant lands.”
Diego peacefully passed over the Rainbow Bridge this morning at 4:00 am. His quality of life was good up to the last and when he passed, he was with
family.

Washing the Ears of the Other Dogs
Was Diego's thing.
This morning, the two new Rottie puppies that were literally given away by a stranger to my husband on the sidewalk outside the vet's office during
Diego's last visit in November, washed the ears of the other dogs for the first time.
I asked the puppies if Diego had taught them - so far, no answer.

So sorry for your loss of Diego. It is always painful to lose one of your furry children. My thoughts are with you.
Whenever I hear that rainy, chill wind blow. I think it may be time to head for Mexico. Tengo que obedecer mi corazon!

They give us unconditional love....and we repay in kind. Memories are made of this.

Diego was a lucky, lucky dog to have had such a great home full of love for all living creatures.
He will be at the rainbow bridge cleaning the ears of so many other loved pets waiting for their loving humans.
It is so sad, just so sad when they leave us. My thoughts are with you.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Our dogs are very much part of the family. I'm sure you have many, many fond memories of Diego.

Ditto what everyone else posted. I'm very sorry. Sometimes you think you just can't do it anymore, then the next one finds you.

Thank You Everyone for Your Kind Remarks
I hesitated about posting this; I wondered who cares about a dog they have never met?
You have helped the hurt in my heart and I thank you.

Somebody may have seen this elsewhere but it's worth the repeat for me...and I hope for you:
I really feel your pain.
I always said that I would get (re) married if I could only find a woman who could give me the unconditional love that my dog never failed to provide.
Well, I found her, she stole my dogs heart and it is a huge loss in both our lives that he can not be here with us....30 years later.
He truly was my oldest son.
We used to backpack together, he carried his own stash of food and I had to Ductape his paws after he chased some mountain sheep a few miles through
the talus, but who could blame him, he was such a puppy then.....
