Oh man you guys all have me tearing up!

Yes I do feel that their presence is with us. The funny thing is that Toto and Scrappy's personalities are almost identical, and we always say Toto is Scrappy reincarnated, although they are nearly the same age and it would be impossible. Not only their personality, but the sound of their barks are the same. When we had to put Scrappy down we closed up our shop for a week. We could not deal with it, and of course could not run a business after that either. Scrappy and Uni and whatever dogs we were fostering were a big part of our shop with them being there everyday, so our customers were very understanding with us being closed for a while. My biggest regret still is not holding Scrappy as he passed. I just could not get myself to do it. Whenever I am scared to do something, I force myself to do it, but for some reason I could not do it and I still don't know why I didn't.
