| One year without Dexter It has been a year since Dexter got so sick that we had to let him go. It has been a long, sad year for us, although we know he is at Rainbow Bridge running and being young again. Doesn't change the pain that I carry in my heart each and every day though. There is not a day that goes by that I don't wish I had my baby in my arms. He was MY buddy, he loved me unconditional and would follow me anywhere I went. He always showed his love and we were blessed to have him in our lives. He wasn't "just a dog", he was one of us, he belonged in our family. Dexter - you are and will always be my wonderful companion. I miss you every moment of everyday. I hope you know the amount of love that we have for you. You are in my heart !! I love you Dexterman !! Dexter - Always in our hearts !! 1995-2006

| Thanks Jan - that little man has a HUGE chunk of my heart for eternity. I have been reading old posts and my first one here about that day is VERY hard to read without reliving the whole thing. Needless to say I sit here with tears everywhere. I know that Dexter knows I loved him with all my heart - I know he loved me unconditionally - I even know he is healthy and full of life at Rainbow Bridge, but none of that will ever ease the pain I feel in my heart without him here. However, I will remember how I am blessed to have had time with him and will always cherish those precious moments. Thanks again for the kind words - take care,

| Thanks Sophierose -- I appreciate you and all the other wonderful people here. There is understanding here that others can't even begin to imagine. I have had some say (not to me thank God) "oh it was just a dog" -- NEVER, our babies are never "just dogs", they are part of our families, one of us. Dexter has a HUGE chunk of my heart forever and I was blessed to be his mom !! Thanks again - take care,

| Aww....your post makes me cry. I KNOW exactly how you feel. You keep telling yourself that eventually, with time, the pain will ease...and it does, but only for brief periods. It only gets a little less painful as time goes on, and we'll never forget the companionship and love and all the good times and bad times that we went through together. That's what makes them extra-special. But we'll see them again, I'm sure of that. It's funny; now that I've lost the things I loved most in the world, joining them doesn't sound so scary anymore.

| Thanks nv and Missy -- I had posted a long reply and have no idea where it went, so I will make this short. NV - I too believe that we will see our babies again one day. There are some that say that the Bible says dogs don't go to Heaven - I don't know but I honestly don't think that the God I serve and has unending love for me would have me spend eternity without Dexter. I could be wrong but that is my opinion. I haven't been around YT for a while because I thought it made me sadder ---READ CAREFULLY - I was wrong, yes I just said I was wrong, re-read that because it doesn't happen often --- I will be here daily now because I see that I was wrong and what better place for me to be than here with wonderful people who truly understand what Yorkies are all about. Thanks again - take care,
