To all of you who’ve lost your dogs, I feel your pain. I’ve said goodbye to 8, plus two cats and a few horses. It hurts every single time. But know this, if you loved and cherished them, they had a great life and the pain is a sign of your love for them.

Thanks for this! Lost my 6 year old Airedale Terrier on New Years eve to kidney disease; heart broken and miss her dearly. Like you, I've lost 8 dogs and it never gets easier. The pain we feel is the price we pay for love.

Yes, it hurts every dang time. Have you ever read Rainbow Bridge?

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

I’ve learned they have a tremendous tolerance for pain.

I take Clover to the Sonic once every few weeks, she enjoys watching them deliver food to cars. Some servers still use roller skates here, and she watches every move.
