I am so sorry to hear about your heartache. They are part of us and never leave us. They give us such joy and love. It is so difficult to say goodbye to them, even though it is the right thing to do.

Your Angie story was really touching. It brought tears as I thought about my own dog(s) from the past. Sounds like he had a wonderful life. Bless you.

Oh Wendi, I have been where you are not too long ago and I am crying now reading your post. I’m so glad you got to give Augie a special day and that knowing this will give you comfort in your grief. Sending so much love to you and your family, I just know he will have had the best life with you. xxx

My husband's favorite author is Clifford Simak. And Desertion is one of his favorite stories. We have listened to Way Station on audiobook many times. We had a similar last day a while ago with our beloved boxer/beagle and the next day I made a dogface quilt square in memory of him. It hangs on our fireplace mantle. Thanks Wendy.

Oh, I am so sorry. The only problem with our beloved dogs is they don't live long enough. My dogs leaving me hurt me like no other hurt. But, there are other dogs out there who need loving homes that we can share our love, and we can have doggie kisses again.

Losing a dog is just so damn hard. I’m so sorry. I know that my three dogs were among the millions that happily welcomed Augie at the base of the rainbow bridge. 🩵
