Judy's Sister's 13 year old dog
Thank you Diddy, she was a sweet liitle Border Collie Mix named
Freckles. she was 13 years old and slept with my sister despite the fact that my sister had to wash bedding almost every day for the last year. My sister had 8 dogs at one time. She is down to one know, named Sweetie. I have been teary eyed since last night. Sadly, not just for my sister and Freckles, but because I look at mine Buck and Lady 13 and 14 and it makes me sad. Buck and Lady got out today and went for a little jog. That rarely happens and singly they won't leave the yard but together they were gone.......I am happy for them. Maybe it was a tribute run!!!!They are crashed out on the floor and probably will be stiff legged for a couple days, BE FREE...FRECKLES! Be Free, Judy |

Thank you Matt,
I will pass your kind words on. I am a mess. I really can't get it together. I know it is selfish but the mortality of my dogs is really hitting me. I can't stop crying. My sister had a Lab that lived to be 18. Maybe I will be so lucky. Thank you again Matt, Flick and Diddy We are going back to bed. They already think they have died and gone to heaven. I just can't stop hugging em. Be Free, Judy |

I understand, but your own dogs are probably very confused by your emotions. Tend to your dogs, appreciate them, and have fun with them. Good healers, all. I'll whole-heartedly second that. No matter how long they live, the time will be too short, so enjoy the hell out of them while you can. Your dogs would prefer it that way, and it will surely make you happier in the long run. -- Shelly (Warning: see label for details) http://www.cat-sidh.net (the Mother Ship) http://esther.cat-sidh.net (Letters to Esther) |

Judy, I've lost three dogs in the past 14 months, and I know I'm going to lose another one in the next couple of months, and I can tell you that no matter how long dogs live, or how long we have them for, it is never long enough. And as I was stupidly surprised to find out this week, no matter how many times you say goodbye to a dog that has a chronic health problem or fatal illness, you will never really be prepared to lose that dog. The best thing you can do for your dogs is to try to keep your behavior, and your dogs' routine, as close to normal as possible. Mustang Sally |

Matt,
You were so right when you said my dogs didn't understand my hysterics over my sister's dog's death. They have seen me have crying spells over the years but this time they just looked at me blankly. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I was wasting my time and theirs!!!!!! Be Free, Judy |

Shelly,
Thank you for your sensible, caring input about me crying the blues over the impending doom of my old dogs who are not even sick. I should be grateful and I am. We are gonna go swimming tomorrow....and make the best of however much time we have. You are right on, it is never enough time.. Thanks, Judy Be Free, Judy |
