    Thats so sad but I guess everything happens for a reason and that win was "sent" - 14 is a good age, although I know no consolation.
    Big hugs to you and your family xx

    Anyone that has lost a dog in the past can instantly identify with the pain you & your family are feeling. The grief will ease & you'll be able to remember the fun & happy times again soon, feel comforted that your dog had a loving home & family.

    Congratulations on the win, I think she may have had a paw in that win perhaps... ;) she would have known that she would leave a gap in the family unit. *hugs*
    Sad because you don't know what to do? :sad: Comping question? Take a look in the Comping Guide to find out :smiley:

    Aww I really can sympathasise with you hun, we too lost our lovely old dog at the end of June he was also 14, it's so hard, especially as you feel that people don't really understand. Nearly 2 months on and It's still hard going but I can at least look at his picture now without tears. I wish you and your family well and hope that the kids gets some smiles from your win.
    That ain't working! That's the way to do it, money for nothing and TV's for free ;)
