blossom 2 Posted August 9, 2004 Terry, OMG!!! The pic of your dog brought tears to my eyes. She looks so very much like my Tilly who I lost on Oct. 25, 2003. She was a black and white Shitzu/Poodle mix. I got her when she was 5 weeks old, she was 15 yrs old when she died and I held her all the way through it. Worst day of my life! I have another little dog, Scrappy who is going on 18 yrs old. He is getting veeeerrrrrrry slow these days, so I know it won't be long before his time comes, too. These days are so hard!!! I'm so sorry for your loss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sascijo 0 Posted August 10, 2004 Blossom, You are my kind of girl. I loved my baby so much... Anyone that commits to 15 and 18 years to a pet, (aka child) is something else and you are to be congratulated. Timber was also a poodle, shi Tzu, Lhaso mix. She could have been a pile of whatever and I wouldn't have cared. I am getting over it now, I guess. I dreamed about her the other night. But ya know, its like this..... I had her for 8 years and I am sooooo lucky...So now it's on to the other pets I have. They are equally as precious. I have a bird that is a hoot..... I have been so busy at work and after work, that I haven't been posting. But maybe things will slow down and I can post and read more of the stuff you girls and guys are talking about. Keep posting pictures. They say more that words ever can.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blossom 2 Posted August 11, 2004 Well, you know, those dogs are the only children I will ever have. So I took my commitment seriously... I learned how to groom and did all the grooming myself, and I make all the dog food, too. Yep, we have lotsa wonderful memories! I have been so very busy at work lately that I haven't had much time to pop in here much. But as things slow down, I will be back! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
