Thank you kindly for your words. Even though Ben isn't my dog, I still feel a connection to him. He is Fenway's cousin and buddy.

They will be putting him to sleep this Friday. I want to go over and give him one last car ride with his brother Sabbie and Fenway, but it will be so hard.

And of course, I think about all the pets I've lost and the ones I have now and how I would be heart broken if they were to die.

Sometimes having a pet is so hard. I wish they could live forever.
