Our beloved Samoyed, died today, suddenly, and from causes unknown. She was only 7.


The best doggie in the whole world.

This is such a shock. I feel like I've been kicked in the gut. There's not enough Kleenex in the house for Nancy and Trevor.

    OMG Andy I'm so sorry.
    We become so attached to our pets. You have many beautiful pictures and all the wonderful memorys to reflect upon, but it still doesn't fill that empty space in your heart and lives.

    I feel for you and your family.

    Every time we lose a pet (more like a family member) I cry like a little kid.

    andy,

    I am very sorry to hear this. It's truely amazing how these furry little four leged creatures can become such a big part of ones family, and how much our hearts ache when they are gone. The good news is you and your family have the capacity to open your hearts to these guys, and are much the better for it.

    Awwwwwwww Andy, I know exactly what your talking about, I had my cat for 20 years and her sister for 16 years, when they died they just broke my heart.....I couldn't go to work for days, I was just beside myself with grief.

    Even now six years down the track if I go down to the Apple Tree where both my girls are buried it still get all teary-eyed.

    Our pets become such a big part of the family...... time does heal ohhhhh but gosh it hurts in the maen time.

    Take Care Andy, Nancy & Trev ...... Thinking of You.... Skippy (Australia)

    So sorry you've been cheated out of the chance to enjoy her for several more years--why she was snatched from your embrace, not to know must be maddening. Hope you're able to get some clues from your vet. She was truly gorgeous, inside and out. Hugs to you and your family.
