This is my dog Terra who passed away early this morning. As you can see, she had a lot of friends including the two camera-shy guinea pigs and the rat on her head. She was a great companion who loved being outdoors and went with me on many of my photo adventures. She was a few days shy of her fifteenth birthday.(11 yrs. old in the picture).
She was a beautiful dog Jim. And I'm sure she enjoyed being with you as much as you did her on your photo adventures. I'm very sorry to hear of your loss. The pain will eventually ease and the happy memories will remain (lost one of mine almost a year ago).
Jim - I'm sorry to hear you lost your buddy but it looks like you've made some great memories. The cycle of life continues and new friendships are waiting to be forged.
Jim: Sorry about your best buddy. We had a mutt that looked a lot like yours -- we lost her last year. She was the best, sweetest dog we ever had so I know what you're feeling. Hang in there.
