|
Its been a hard winter for us this year thus explaining why I haven't been replying to any post.
Max came down with bronkitas and fluid in his lungs just this past month. We been taking him to the vet every day. My stand by friend just passed away at the vets office today. He'll be missed as he liked to always walk the garden with me and smell my flowers. Here's my friend, though he was 12 he always acted like a pup.
I miss you Max.

Oh Petunia, so sorry to hear of Max's passing. I know you will miss him something awful this spring and summer when you are gardening.
It's been almost 6 months since Rambo passed and I still miss him terribly.

Oh I am sooo sorry for your loss. I lost 2 of mine within 6 months so I totally understand what you are going through. It's like loosing a child. It hurts deeply. Again my prayers are with you and I am sorry.

Petunia, I missed seeing your posts. I am so sorry for the loss of your darling Max. What a beautiful boy he was. I know just how you must be feeling, we also had a Max who passed away some years ago now. My thoughts are with you and I send you lots of hugs.
