A new bright star in the midnight sky - sweet boy the Bleu

He fought the good fight and he fought hard with his the Mom FURever and always by his side. But sometimes the Universe pulls harder on a soul than we would like and someone we l♥ve is called to complete his Circle of Life. That is how it was for the Bleu. He left us physically, but what he left behind is testament to the impact he had on so many when he paw'd this earth along with us.

♥Darling the Bleu, you are now in Heaven with your brofur, the Luke, because your the Mom loved you so deeply that she was willing to experience monumental pain to give you the freedom to run free of pain♥. I salute your the Mom for her courage and for her passionate love and commitment to you. It's NEVER good-bye, sweetheart, it is ALWAYS 'see you later'. All my l♥ve, your the Mimi

Please, if you have the time, would you travel to his blog to leave a word of comfort for his the Mom and for his brofur, the Reufus. They are in deep mourning.

"We who choose to surround ourselves with lives even more temporary than our own, live within a fragile circle, easily and often breached. Unable to accept its awful gaps, we still would live no other way. We cherish memory as the only certain immortality, never fully understanding the necessary plan." ~Irving Townsend.

A 'feel good' cry if there ever was one...

I know it might sound sappy, but when I see videos like the one above it makes me proud to be someone who shares her life with these wonderful animals. No, not all dogs will lead the blind; however, within each and every K-9 ♥ is a love for mankind that cannot be duplicated or surpassed.

Friendship isn't about who you have known the longest, but about who came and never left your side~unknown

The last words of a very intelligent dog

Before I go, I just want to remind all you pups and kitties to always have plenty of love for your humans even if they might be grumpy. Sometimes they get caught up in all sorts of things and take us for granted. That doesn't mean they don't love and need us. Also you humans, remember why you have us around. If you are feeling stressed out, pet us. It's been proven to lower your blood pressure. Also keep lots of treats handy. And for everyone, enjoy life. Always take time for walks, frisbee and CAR RIDES.

And one last thing for you humans. If you are considering adding another dog to your home, think about giving one of older dogs a chance. We don't chew up your shoes, pee inside (well, not unless we really can't help it) or need lots of training. Plus you will have a very loyal friend for the rest of our lives. ~Domi, the therapy dog, 1996-2009

Even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from the master's table." - Matt 15:27

I have a firm belief that each and every dog has been placed on earth as a gift from Heaven. Sadly, not all dogs have the opportunity to be as treasured as they deserve. The breadth of what dogs can do, and have done, for mankind is astounding - breathtaking. We owe them great debt and we owe God our resounding - THANK YOU! M.Sullivan

The House Dog's Grave by Robinson Jeffers (1887-1962) I've changed my ways a little; I cannot now Run with you in the evenings along the shore, Except in a kind of dream; and you, If you dream a moment, You see me there. So leave awhile the paw-marks on the front door Where I used to scratch to go out or in, And you'd soon open; leave on the kitchen floor The marks of my drinking-pan. I cannot lie by your fire as I used to do On the warm stone, Nor at the foot of your bed; no, All the nights through I lie alone. But your kind thought has laid me less than six feet Outside your window where firelight so often plays, And where you sit to read‚ And I fear often grieving for me‚ Every night your lamplight lies on my place. You, man and woman, live so long, it is hard To think of you ever dying. A little dog would get tired, living so long. I hope that when you are lying Under the ground like me your lives will appear As good and joyful as mine. No, dears, that's too much hope: You are not so well cared for as I have been. And never have known the passionate undivided Fidelities that I knew. Your minds are perhaps too active, too many-sided... But to me you were true. You were never masters, but friends. I was your friend. I loved you well, and was loved. Deep love endures To the end and far past the end. If this is my end, I am not lonely. I am not afraid. I am still yours.
