*runs and puts my face in a pillow* Wow.. I never thought I would sob like that! :-( My tyson is going to be 8 on Mon.. And the thought of having to go through this with him, like I did with my old Tasha girl... Just kills me. I wish they could live forever! But something I had been told by a very good friend of mine.. "Dogs are here to show us what unconditional love is, and to show is that Hate isn't something you can do. Once they think we have learned what we needed.. They will go, and hope we can share the love they showed us, with someone else. Change there lives as well." And for some reason, that seemed to make it better. Tyson has/Is my Life, and my Soul! And he has been there for me through some tough times. And I know when it is time.. I will be a mess. But I will also try to keep my friends words in my head. Loosing a pet is Always soo hard.
