I'm so sorry to hear about this and I'm doubly sorry to be so late to tell you this. Forgive me.<br />Pets are our families and to lose them is tough no matter what their size. Jake was obviously a good buddy and brought so many smiles and memories and will be deeply missed.<br />Hang on the memories and photos and I believe that when we die, we will meet up with our pets somehow, I just know it.<br /><br />Hugs♥Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02324458825591614167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-973593384239080192.post-72788051320540273022009-08-31T23:23:20.787-04:002009-08-31T23:23:20.787-04:00I'm so sorry about this.

I hope to hear that you found a new legacy of his love..<br /><br />I lost 3 this year 14 years 11 years and 24 years and even though I have 4 new pets in the house. they seem like just pets, not part of the family like they were. I laid in chemo stupor for a year with those 2 dogs so worried for me..<br /><br />I could not have asked for a better life with them. The dogs I have now seem to be just dogs - I guess because I am hurting so much . This morning I saw a note Take Petrille to park first thing and I must have written it 3 weeks ago. I miss them soooo much . and I cried and cried. their dedication is unparalleled in this world..s.sandyi beatihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09898046178398533410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-973593384239080192.post-2631504431984738512009-08-29T12:38:48.773-04:002009-08-29T12:38:48.773-04:00No matter how old your pet, it's never ever ea...No matter how old your pet, it's never ever easy to see them go.

You will remember him for ever.<br /><br />I loved Luke's comment above: "Little dogs make up for their small size with double enthusiam." So true!<br /><br />And I must add that Luke looked like a real man's dog---nothing sissy about him. Plus that does look like a mean cat from hell.

The passing of such a true friend always leaves a big gap in one's life, especially one that has helped you over a rough patch in your own life.<br />Last year we lost Selkie a treasured Border Collie sheep dog. She may not have been the brightest dog in creation, but so willing and loving and a great dog in the sheep yards. We had the vet come to the farm to put her to sleep when life was just a misery for her after a stroke.<br /><br />There is nothing like the devotion of a four legged friend.Arijahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03720793296992474762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-973593384239080192.post-19173658017426410322009-08-29T01:31:41.923-04:002009-08-29T01:31:41.923-04:00Oh Tom...I am so sorry about Jake.
