I used to have pets, 45 snakes 45 assorted frogs and lizards geckos and bearded dragons, 3 ferrets a Maroon bellied conyour, A Boxer, an Australian Shepherd....leaving something out....rats...mice...hmmm !!! oh yeah, Chameleons 2 jacksons and 2 veiled. you get the idea... Now, nothing ;-}
Today we found out, our family dog has cancer of the spleen. She has not suffered for two weeks and after this week end, she will be at peace. She has brought lots of love to many and her job is done. Thank you Blaze for the years you gave to humans that were never worthy of your unconditional love!
Thanks juno7, my daughter and I shared a few tears today and she and her husband will make sure Blaze goes with the love she came with. I know this is silly, but over the years when I called my daughter, I have chatted with the dog. I visited in Oct., and she remembered me because she always knew she could get away with anything when I was around.

i don't think it's silly at all. we open our hearts, and forget the impermanence of it all sometimes. but i know you know this... it's all transition, and if we're lucky, we have opportunities to share our hearts with others, including the special ones like Blaze.
Although I enjoy the freedom that no pets allows me at this time, I have enjoyed the company of a mixed breed (lab and red setter named Finnegan) a purebred German Shepperd named Blackie and a couple of Arabian horses named Gatyn's Sabana and Gatyn's Sundancer at different times in my life. Now it's the fish in the aquarium on my screen saver
My apartment does not allow pets but wish i could have a cat to come home to love cats. My freind has a 14 stone New foundlaand dog called wooke irs an amazing creature and very placid
