    My tears are freely flowing now. This just breaks my heart to read what you went through today.
    At least you can take comfort in the fact that he is not in pain. I know you don't want to hear that right now, but eventually you will.

    RIP Tommy
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Hi Jess,

    I've been absent from Pettalk for over a year now, but I started lurking again a few weeks ago. I came back, because I wanted to post about Oz, but I just can't seem to come up with the words yet, so I lurk. But once I saw your post about Tommy, I felt I had to come out of lurkdom and let you know how sorry I am for your loss and share some thoughts about Tommy. You get attached to other people's dogs here, from the pictures and the stories they share, and Tommy was one that instantly won my heart. Such a sweetheart! And gorgeous to boot! I think he was easily my favorite Golden here. I still have the picture of him with all his logs and it never fails to put a smile on my face. He did his retriever roots proud. I always felt like he and Murph and Oz would be the best of buds, if they ever met. Maybe they're hanging out with each other now. Tommy laying out his row of logs, Murph stopping to pee on each and every one of'em and Oz barking loud enough, to let everyone in heaven know what they're up to. They're never in our lives long enough, but we were blessed for every moment we did share with such wonderful dogs.



    You were one special guy, Tommy and you will be greatly missed.

    Les...

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Words can't express how my heart is breaking for you. Its always hard to lose them but when it happens unexpectedly, it makes it that much harder. Know that Tommy passed knowing he was one of the most loved dogs in the world. And they do take something from us when they leave. But they also leave us with something so special, we can't put into words. Take care of yourself and we're all here if you need us.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.
