Woman - you need a MAN in your life!!!

And not some "Broken Back" man.

I have read your threads. Coincidentaly, and ironicaly during the identical time frame of your same loss, I lost a dear, beloved, K9, friend of ten years. I could give you the official "mumbo-jumbo" but let us call it cancer of the spleen that spread to the liver.

We had a blessed three week "love fest" together. The good Lord was kind in allowing a transitional parting. The passing was 45 minutes of jerks and spasms and twitchs in the hallway. It was mercifuly short when extended over 10 years.

Yah, there were tears and reading your postings brought back tears.

I did not "seek solice" in cyber-friends or bulletin-board-buddys.

Friends (flesh and blood, humans) came by and comforted the beast that was blissfully ignorant of the three vet-hospitol's diagnoises.

But....F-CKING get over it woman!

Why post your crappola - and insist it isn't (leave it to a clone)....I have a feeling much of your life, like the daily household chores of cleaning, (and leaving BS to the clones) have been "put on hold" for many years. Thankfuly, the dogs may of saved your lives as you do "Spring Cleaning."

It was a dog and only a dog. Humans want to anthropomorphise/persona things as far removed from humankind as wind-chimes. Dogs, cats, and wind chimes have no souls

Spend the remainder of YOUR Life helping others. Use your dogs as a model of self-less-sacrifice. They did not know better....but were counting on you.

Sincerely,
Gargoyle

Personally, dogs should live OUTDOORS where the sun's UV or the cold temperatures kill most of the "nasty" natural things.
