Lucky was a beautiful dog. I’m sure she brought you many hours of joy, peace and serenity. I find dogs to be very therapeutic. Their unconditional love is all the medicine you need on a bad day when you’re feeling depressed or feeling physical pain. They have a way of making the pain go away . . . they make us feel so much better when we see their soulful eyes and watch their tail wag with anticipation of receiving your love and attention (in exchange for their unconditional love).

I lost my baby, “Trina” (a Lhasa Apso), almost a year ago. I think about her every day and my heart still hurts. I haven’t gotten over her lost yet, so I can imagine how you may be feeling. However, a smile comes to my face when I think about the funny things she used to do! My heart smiles through the tears.

I just found your blog; it’s full of great content and I’ve bookmarked it because I will be returning often to visit. Feel free to drop by my blog which I’ve recently started. I’m always open to learn new things to make me a better blogger; offer great content and information to my readers; and help take the pain away.

I love your style of writing, too. Keep up the good work and continue to give us blog posts that make us smile, cry and think . . . it reminds us that we are human and its the only thing that distinguishes us from our computer (IMHO).

I have had a lot of cats in my life. And have had some pretty serious losses when they died. Right now I have two recently-adopted kittens. They are extremely amusing, and each one of them has a very strong personality. They each have their quirks, favorite toys and games, funny habits, and a ton of affection.

They never seem to stop having fun either.

Sorry to hear of your loss.

We had a little cairn terrier (very similar to Lucky) who died a couple years back and we were devastated, as you are.

The comfort I always take from the memories, is that he was loved and cared for and had a great life. It’s obvious that Lucky had the same – so think of the happy memories and take comfort in the knowledge that lucky also had a great life because you looked after her.

Talk soon,

Andrew.

I am so sorry for your loss. I have both dogs and cats and I love them all to death. I don’t have kids, so to me they are my kids. It makes me sad leaving them at home for 8 hours a day while I’m at my day job. I think pets really brighten up peoples lives. When you get home each day they are always so happy to see you and they do really love you unconditionally.

I lost two of my cats in the last 5 years and it was tough both times. One got really sick suddenly and the vet couldn’t pin down what caused it. He passed within the week. Then his brother came down with a really rare skin tumor last year that we couldn’t get under control.

I totally agree with you on having someone help set up your blog. I did the same thing. I took forever trying to pick out a theme, then I struggled with the widgets, then my theme didn’t work with some widgets so I had to get a new theme …. all that time I could have been blogging and building my content. Lesson learned anyhow.

Take care, Heidi

I am so sorry for your loss – she was so CUTE! I have such a heart for animals – if I had my way, I’d be Dr. Doolittle!

I loved your post – I think we can all learn from animals. Our current menagerie is made up of 3 cats and a fish! Our baby kitty, Zoe – is a MODEL of taking charge and getting involved. Barely four months old now and weighing in at a scant 3lbs or so.. she has completely commandeered every space our two boy kitties (12 lbs and 16 lbs) have ever been known to enjoy – and they let her!

The lesson I have learned from little Zoe is this… constant perseverance (consistent persistence)pays off!

So… I keep on working, keep on learnin’ and keep sharin’
Peace~

Sorry for your loss.
What a moving post, couldn’t help but think of my little mutt while reading. Great life lessons to be learnt also.

If you don’t enjoy it don’t do it, find someone to do it for you that way you are free to work on the areas you do enjoy and will get more done without putting off the jobs you don’t want to do.

All the best,

James
