Thanks Karen.
Me and my family had the opportunity to raise 4 lovely dogs: 1 Labrador and 3 Golden Retrievers. I recently lost one, Chuchay, our Lab. He got escaped from our gates and have never came back. We never chained our dogs and let them wander around the house and lawn. We did a community wide search but to no avail.I just thought he has gone with a she dog and started a family somewhere. Our oldest one is Happy, a Golden Retriever he was with us for over 15 years before leaving us when one day got sick and just died peacefully while sleeping. Left were Bocha and Woody, 3 years and 1 year old. Both are happy guard and play dogs in the house who are like little kids like my grandson. So active and full of life. They ALL make our lives so enjoyable and fun. Never a dull moment with this wacky family team.
I haven't overcome my mourning yet with the loss of our 2 dogs but life goes on. I hope I can overcome the grief, so that I can share affection to another canine. I hope. Friends have been urging me to raise one again even offering me newly born pups. But my son was so affected too that he wanted to try another type of pet. (I think he is still in withdrawal with the memory of our pets. But dogs or not, I am always welcome to any kind so long as I can house 'em inside our little home.
:P
