Loss is not ever easily forgotten. I too have lost several pups over the years and it can be overwhelming. The grief can come and go with me, sometimes when I am most stressed I think of these silly pups who have come into and out of my life and the joy they brought. Enjoy the memories of Harvey and know he will never truly be gone as long as his memory lives in your heart!

I lost my Gus on Friday
I know how all of you feel. We lost our Caleb in June of '04 to a brain tumor. He was almost 12. Friday we had to put Gus down also to a brain tumor. He was going to be 11 in August. My heart is breaking.
I was so lucky to have them the time I did, but I am grieving for me, not for them. They are happy playing with their brother Jake, and sister, Jesse.
Just pray for strength to get you through the hard times. There are a lot of them. I will get Gus's ashes one day this week and I know it will be just as hard as Friday was.
I will get another baby this year, I just don't know when. Some people say they can't go through a loss again, but to me, their love is all worth it.
Peace to you all.

I also still cry over all of my departed furbabies. I guess it is a good thing that they will never be forgotten. It is a love that is hard to ever forget.

Reading this thread... I'm crying once again..
It's been almost a year my baby girl crossed the bridge she was a little shy of being 7 years old. I felt so robbed and still do losing her to cancer at such a young age. A day has not gone by that I haven't thought about her at some point during the day. We now have Abigail and I love her dearly. She has helped me so much with the loss of Brandy this past year.. and like everyone else I do not want to get over Brandy I want to remember all the special times all the looney things she did to make us laugh. Abigail reminds me of Brandy is several ways but Brandy was so very special one could never take her place. My co workers didn't understand then and still don't understand the love I have for my both my babies. Brandy's picture is still on my desk where it's always been... God how I miss that girl.. Abigail must sense something as she just walked up and knudged me with her nose.. aren't they great..

i could not sleep last night, and as so many of us know it seems night time any anxieties, stresses, concerns are amplified by 100. so of course my pain over losing peanut on 2-15-05 was immense again as i was tossin g and turning last night wishing i could fall back to sleep and also feeling the emptiness of peanut's spot on our bed in between us of course! each day seems to get a little easier and then when I least expect it those feelings come crashing back and overwhelm me. I woke and realized that one month ago today was monday, 2-14-05 and we saw our dear peanut decline rapdily while watching, ironically, westminster dog show on TV (of course the working group). i noticed her feet were swollen, not just her belly, and called the vet. he knew, and i could tell in his voice that her time was near. we set up our aerobed in the living room and slept (or tried to at least) with peanut as she could not make it up the stairs (and she always slept in bed with us!) it was the next morning, tuesday, that we took her to be seen at 8:45am. i am so sad we did not bring her home to "do it" but she was in so much pain and suffering when we got to the vets exam room that we knew to even wait a few hours until the vet could come to our home would make it worse. she passed at 9:30. I still feel guilty at times, did she understand that she as not at home? did it make it worse? I just know that it was peacful and we saw her at peace and calm for the first time in awhile. but i do understand your feelings and know that even though with time we learn to live with our loss, the feelisng and greif will be there for years. they are so important to us, and they are such members of our families, and it is on tis great site that we can find people who really do understand. i wish you brighter days ahead as well, pippa!
