Well as long as they don't start leaving all of their zimmer frames parked outside the S&BS so that we can trip over them on the way out, good luck to them!
“No matter how close we are to another person, few human relationships are as free from strife, disagreement, and frustration as is the relationship you have with a good dog. Few human beings give of themselves to another as a dog gives of itself. I also suspect that we cherish dogs because their unblemished souls make us wish - consciously or unconsciously - that we were as innocent as they are, and make us yearn for a place where innocence is universal and where the meanness, the betrayals, and the cruelties of this world are unknown"

“Dogs have given us their absolute all. We are the center of their universe. We are the focus of their love and faith and trust. They serve us in return for scraps. It is without a doubt the best deal man has ever made. ”

For after all, he was only human. He wasn't a dog.”

“Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring--it was peace.”

My buddy Andrew and I have just returned from burying Salchow at a friend's farm. He's in a field next to a paddock with a donkey and a pig, and my friend's seven dogs play there (though not today). I can't think of a nicer spot.
Thank you everyone. There have been many tears at the House Of Barbel this day, and they're not all from the wife & kids.
Dear Barbel, so sorry to hear your dog has passed away,its a terrible pain that will not go away . it will take time ,but it will get better, We bought a tree when our little boy died ,and I talk to him via the tree ,it helps, :x
Oddly enough the one who's taken it best is my little granddaughter (in my Frankenstein naming mode, that would be Barbel's Daughter's Daughter). Bride Of Barbel keeps staring wistfully at the corner he liked, and I keep wanting to throw him the last bite of my toast or sandwich or whatever.
On a lighter note, ive just returned from the woods (with fleabag mk2) and we went to see if the crocuses where out ,(they were)
a good sign winter has gone, it was a favourite place for me and our 1st dog to walk too ,so when I saw them today , he is still here
Now on a different subject, me and the wife,have booked a 3 day trip this year to go to the Edinburgh military tattoo ,any Bond tips whilst im in town ,would be greatly appreciated, ) )

Hope that he'll have fun chasing all these cats in heaven and that a fresh and meaty bone waits for him everyday there -{

The loss of a much loved pet always hits a family hard.
