Our sweet Boo died during the early morning, sometime between 3:00am and 6:20am.

She was 12 years old, the most gentle black lab we've ever known and a champ at playing bird.

Papa, Amos and I will miss you so much.
Rest in peace sweet, sweet girl.

Ever so sad,

Abu's Mom

I am sorry. It will hurt for a good while, and then comes remembering the good times.

I'm sorry for your loss too. It sounds like Boo was a good ol' dog.

So sorry, black labs are so lovely. Thinking of you and knowing that your Boo is happy back home and will be there to welcome you when you return,

I had a black lab myself and even after thirty years I can sob for the loss of him.

Good dogs are hard to loose. Its hard to come to terms to. Some people expect mourning over a person, and find it strange that an animal can cause the same or deeper emotion.

Be kind to yourself Lily

You know who is having a really hard time of this is Amos, our cocker spaniel. He has been looking for her, is very jumpy and mopey, he follows me everywhere and is hyper alert. He takes his dog bones and runs around the house with it instead of wolfing it down like he usually does. I think he is looking for her, to share it. Abu had been sick. She stopped eating regular dog food so she was getting special food and yummies she loved. It got so she wouldn't eat at all and she would rest her head near the treats. Amos, normally a thief of anything yummy, never touched hers. He knew that was especially for Boo. He also was sleeping near her, often with his head on hers. He is definately in mouring and it is difficult to watch the once non-stop Super Amo so mopey. I know he has to come to terms with this loss too and am hopeful he will return to his busy body, thieving, mischievious self soon. It just is so pitiful.

I went to church yesterday and lit a candle for Abu.
