No offense to anyone, but I just wanted to share my feelings on this.
I know everyone's hearts are in the right place, but I think it would be so hard to come here after suffering such a loss and seeing my dog's pic in every post I clicked on. I would not ever want to forget my dog, not by any means, but to have that constant reminder that they are no longer with you each time you went to a different post and saw some one's well meaning sig, would just about rip me apart.
I thought I'd just mention it as that is what I thought about when I saw this thread. Sorry if it offends anyone, it wasn't meant to.
That's how I would feel, too, I think. I would know people meant well, but seeing my dog's picture in every post would be too much salt in the fresh wound, I think. I think I'd have to take a break from PT until I could cope.
"We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam
"We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
