    Godspeed Sherman. Thanks for letting us get to know you and for giving your humans one last gift, a peaceful crossing. They probably can't see it through their tears yet, but someday they will find much comfort in that. I'm sure you were met at the Bridge by a bunch of PT furkids. Look for Hoodoo and Preacher--they'll show you all the husky hot spots(or cold spots if you prefer!)

    May time and your good memories heal your broken hearts Pat & JoeJoe.

    This is truly the power of love worthy of so special a soul as you are dear Sherman. I am so sorry you had to leave so soon and pray the pain in your family's hearts can be somehow eased. You will find a way to show them, I know. For now, rest easy and let your spirit free.

    Pat and JoJo, thank you for giving us all the opportunity to know your beautiful boy and to share this difficult time. Many thoughts and prayers are being sent your way and gigantic hugs for Sierra who must be feeling such a loss.

    Rest peacefully, sweet Sherman. I wasn't lucky enough to know you but I know from your photos and how others spoke of you that you loved life. I see you loved to smile. That smile will make the RB shine so brightly tonight.

    Good bye Sherman. I will miss you.
    Me too. That's why I didn't write more and can't read everything, especially Karen's poem.

    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.

    I can't help but cry. It's like the canines of Pet Talk really to become a part of some type of family to the members.

    Dear dear Sherman, rest easy and play hard at Rainbow Bridge. We all love and miss you.

    As I said in PM Pat, I'm still at loss for words.

    That boy of yours sure has a lot of people in tears tonight, including me. As I said in the PM, Shermie will be eternally grateful for you and JoJoe's love, understanding, and unselfishness.


    Big {{HUGS}} for you, JoJoe, and Star... please let me know if there's anything else I can do for you.

    * HUGS * to Sherman's family and friends. It seems as if he has touched so very many lives. I know his physical presence will be dearly missed.

    It was quite the journey we've been on with him in his illness. Who would have thought it was something so serious. Poor babe.

    At least he had a very loving family and didn't have to meet the harsh ends that some dogs do. I couldn't wish much more for any dog.

    My thoughts and prayers are with your family. (S.O. has also been hoping the best for Shermie through this whole ordeal. ... I'll tell him the news in the morning.)

    Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.

    I can't believe I missed your earlier update.

    I am so extremely sorry, Pat. It's always hard when we have to let our dogs go, but especially so young. He knew he had a wonderful life, and a wonderful family though. Just remember that he's got Rosie now to show him around. I'm in tears reading this. I can't believe he's gone. I feel like I've lost one of my own.

    (((HUGS))) to you, JoJoe, and Star.

    I'm so sorry. You did the unselfish act of letting him go and now he's painfree and playing like a puppy again up at Rainbow Bridge. He sure was a handsome boy and will never be forgotten. I'm glad to hear that he went peacefully. RIP sweet Sherman.

    Dear Sherman... I'm so glad your last trip was a painless and smooth one. Play hard at the Bridge sweet boy. You've touched many lives here, whether in person or not. We'll all be missing you. Keep an eye on your family and know they will need your presence in this difficult time. Enjoy being well and happy and young again. We'll all see you one day. God Bless.

    and know how peaceful he was in his last moments this side of the Rainbow Bridge.
    I kissed his head and whispered your love to him, Friends.

    I'm not often at a loss for words ... but Sherman's Passing to the Rainbow Bridge
    has left me wordless. I'll try again later.

    Here's a HeartFelt {{{HUG}}} for each of you.
