Awwww, I am glad Baxter loves you best. Pets love without any discrimination of any kind...they just love you.

Glad you found a good home for your latest rescue and helped a friend get her new doggie pal. Sounds like Baxter will have plenty of fur friends.

What a wonderful story! I certainly understand just how much Baxter means to you. We all understand that! I'll bet it was really hard to let Jake go to a new home. I would have loved having him in mine. Take care!

[Jaspermom]

Gosh, Mikey, you have been so utterly adopted by this group, have you not?? We all want you for a son, lol!

I see that you have taken on the mission to rescue as many pets as you can! You keep this up, and everyone you know will have a dog or twenty!

I LOVE the picture of you and Baxter, sweetie!! That is an amazing shot.

It sounds like you are making it through your losses. God has a plan for us and I've always felt, as hard as it is, that people and our furry friends, enter our lives for a reason. If they can stay forever, great!!, if not I feel blessed for as long as I have them in my life. Best wishes to you!

gosh i love this board. you're all so great.

and you can never have enough moms right?

I'm glad you did the right thing by Jake. It's hard to get attached and then let them go. At least you gave him to a friend so you'll be able to see him from time to time.

You have lots of Mom's here, but I want to apply for the job of Grandma (since I am much older than most of the gals here). You also needs a lot of Grandmas!! You are one of the kids in the younger generation that makes me have faith in the future. I'd be proud to be your Grandma.

Not to mention Grandmothers are far less strict than moms, ya know. Grandmas let you have cookies BEFORE dinner.

I am older than most here too and maybe older than you. ha. Mikey, I can really relate to problems and how the yorkie has helped. I lost my daughter to heart disease when she was 20, and theres never a minute she isnt still in my mind no matter what i'm doing. I only have one son, he has a daughter 20 now and it was over 14 years before they had another child. finally, they had a son who is now 6. but after 14 yrs we had moved about 60 miles from them, never expecting another grand child and now I regret that because I dont get to spend much time with him or really none of them. my son owns a growing business and is gone a lots, my grand daughter works and goes to college and now the grandson is starting 1st grade. I worked till 4 yrs ago and lost my job when the company sold out. every office worker was let go. So for 4 yrs i'm home alone most every day since hubby drives 100 miles a day to work and back and that makes him gone for about 12 hours and i hate doing things alone. I got Kizzy March 15th and she has really made me feel better as she takes up a lot of my time trying to make a good dog out of her. So I for one do understand how your puppy can help heal being alone which being alone gives ya too much time to dwell on the past and makes it harder to get over things. Some things we never will get over but it does get better but I know kizzy has really been a big help to me and I just love her to peices. goodluck to you in the future whatever you do, sounds like you deserve something good finally.

[chattiesmom]

Mikey, how lucky you are to have such a HUGE family and so many foster mommas and sisters! Gee Whiz, we are going to have you spoiled rotten! Do you realize how many people really care about you.... I mean REALLY CARE?

It sounds like you have such a sweet gentle heart. Please keep it that way!
