You will be terribly missed:cry:

[D. Craig Flory]

Paul;

I'm glad you were able to create some good memories of your pet & friend. My wife and I had a poodle for 16 years and now have a 15 month old Jack Russell Terrier. All I can say is "Pets are People Too".

[PaulMouton]

Thanks for the comment Craig, "Pets are people too". I totally agree with you. 16 years is a long time. I only wish I could have had him that long. I was lucky enough to have him for 9 though.

[WilliamL]

Paul, sorry for your lost. I've got 2 in dogs and to me they are like my kids.

[75D]

My sympathies, Paul.
I've lost a dog and 2 cats, and I know your pain.
They were members of the family and are always remembered but never replaced.

Wayne

[PaulMouton]

Thanks William and Wayne. Much appreiciated. In my broken heart, I know he's in a better place now, and I take solice in knowing we'll be together again.

[dawnrogers]

Your Pets In Heaven

by Ken D. Conover

To have loved and then said farewell, is better than to have never loved at all.
For all of the times that you have stooped and touched my head, fed me my favorite treat and returned the love that I so unconditionally gave to you.
For the care that you gave to me so unselfishly.
For all of these things I am grateful and thankful.

I ask that you not grieve for the loss, but rejoice in the fact that we lived, loved and touched each others lives. My life was fuller because you were there, not as a master/owner, but as my FRIEND.

Today I am as I was in my youth. The grass is always green, butterflies flit among the flowers and the Sun shines gently down upon all of God's creatures.
I can run, jump, play and do all of the things that I did in my youth. There is no sickness, no aching joints and no regrets and no aging.

We await the arrival of our lifelong companions and know that togetherness is forever.
You live in our hearts as we do in yours. Companions such as you are so rare and unique.
Don't hold the love that you have within yourself. Give it to another like me and then I will live forever. For love never really dies, and you are loved and missed as surely as we are.

So sorry for your loss.
We take in many so we have lost many over the years. Never easy.

Another will come who needs your help.......

[PaulMouton]

Thank you Polo. I've got another one like him that is 6 months younger than he was that is very healthy, although, he has never been without another dog in his life. Needless to say, he's having as hard a time as my family since I got back without his buddy. :(

[Aidenswarrior]

I am tearing :( sorry for your loss

Just wanted to say thanks again for all of your comforting words. Hopefully the start of the new year will be better than the end of last. Happy New Year Everyone

[ebondanes]

Having lost several of my best friends, I can feel your pain. Truly, you never forget them, you just learn to live without them. My sympathies.

[Shasta]

I feel your loss Paul. I too have lost a few friends and I have honored them by putting their names on the Rainbow list. Now they have an extended family and know they are in a good place. Always in our thought. Chong, Taffy and Brandy.

I am sorry for you loss. We lost our Lab ~Penny~ almost 2 years ago at 14 years. We miss her everyday. I know how you must feel.

Steve

[Ben Daniels]

So sorry to see about your loss.
Dogs are incredible creatures, they never speak a word but they "say" everything. I have lost two friends in the past, and still miss both. One after 23 years and the other 7 years ago.
I have Oskar now, a 6 year old shetland Sheep dog, mad as a hatter, and sometimes wish he would slow down or stop barking, but then think that in older age this will happen to him anyway, so change my mind and enjoy his youth with him :)

When we had our last dog put to sleep at the vets we cried soo much that the vet nurse cried along with us!
Time is a great healer, but you will never forget.
Ben

[PaulMouton]

Julie, Shasta, Steve, and Ben, thank you for your kind words. I'm sorry for your losses as well.

[lycan]

very cute. I know the felling that you have.

But photographs live on

[Becca]

So sorry to hear of your loss, Paul. Dogs are such special part of our lives and leave such an empty space when they are gone. He looks like a beautiful boy.

[coatsie]

So sorry for your loss - totally understand what you are going through (and what everyone goes through). We lost our 15 year old lab nearly 18 months ago and still miss him dreadfully every day.

You will always have your memories and you have got some lovely photos too.

[Graphyfotoz]

So so sorry for your loss! :cry:
I know what it's like to loose a furry friend.

[Broncobear]

Paul I'm very sorry for your loss. I wish pets outlived humans...I think it's so mcuh easier for them to move on then us at times.

[PaulMouton]

Bronco, thanks and I totally agree with you. BTW, love your sig!! Debts "gear list" haha that's funny!! Thanks for that too, I needed a good laugh:)
