| My husband and I made the decision to keep my Bubba with us, but that he needs a lil buddy to be with. He has had a brother almost his whole life (we got him at 3 months old...so technically he has not been without a buddy except the first three months of his life) and I want him to have a brother or sister to keep him company in the fall when my husband is working and I am teaching. So, at 1pm, we will be at an area dog pound looking at dogs. I don't want the dog to be too big, although my Bubba lived with me at my apartment with my college roomie with her pug/pitbull mix. Surprisingly, BUBBA was the boss of the 70 pound dog and sent HIM hiding when he barked. I am not, in any way, trying to replace my furry angel. Tyke is irreplaceable. We will never find another fur baby like him. But my Bubba cannot be an only dog after always having a buddy. My dad used to take Tyke out on the back deck with him when he would smoke a cigar and Tyke would go "hunting" (sniffing through the wooden plats on the deck) and LOVED to go out. He heard the cigar wrapper, and he was by that door whining to go out. Well, last night, my dad was out and by himself and had to come in early because he couldn't do it. He misses his "smoking buddy" I know, in time, it'll stop. My parents returned last night from their trip and my mom saw the paw print that the animal hospital made for us from Tyke and she just held it cried. I can't even look at it without my heart feeling like it's ready to explode. We have not decided what to do with it yet. I suggested drilling a hole (it is plaster) in the top, make it an ornament and stick it on one of those ornament hooks you keep up all year, but she is afraid it might fall and break. So, we are going to decide what to do with it. We are taking his bed and putting in it a stuffed yorkie my mom got a few years back. We can't throw that bed out, and my parents can't leave it empty. Hopefully, when the time is right, they will find a dog to bring home to sleep in a bed of their own

| I am so very sorry for your loss. I am sending my hugs and love to you and your family. I lost my yorkie early July. I'm still crying every day and looking for her,and thinking I see her from the corner of my eye. I would not wish pain like this on anyone. May your sweet furbaby play in heaven with the other precious ones we have lost.

| So sorry for your loss. Time does heal, although it seems at times like the healing will never come.

| We got an eight week old rescue puppy today she is boxer/terrier mix, supposed to get to 35 pounds and my Bubba boy has actually taken to him well. They were both in the dog bed earlier While Piglet will NEVER replace my Tykie monster, she is sure a ray of sunshine through my tears

| Thanks, everyone I can't help but think of what better way to honor my Tykie than to rescue another dog and try to give them the life that Tyke had for 13 years. It still hurts though. Today I found half a can of his dog food from when we watched him here for my parents and then a whole can and I just sat on the kitchen floor and sobbed. Piglet (the new addition!) came in, sat by me and cocked her head. She put her head in my lap and sighed and just looked up at me and then started giving me those adorable and priceless perky puppy kisses. I couldn't help but smile. The simple things set me off. Like, once again, the dog food. I feel awful for my Bubba who lost his brother that he knew for six years. He looks up at me with his little eyes and I start crying. I wish I knew if he understood what is going on. I hate the thought of him wondering if he is going to come back. It breaks my heart. He is having trouble with our new puppy but I hope that they will eventually become friends It took Tyke a long time to get used to Bubba, so I'm not too concerned. Does it help when you get the ashes back? August 23 they should be back at the animal hospital to be picked up. I don't know if that will help to bring me some closure. Everyone says that it takes time, but I don't see myself ever NOT missing my baby. I just hurt so much from this. I keep wondering if yanking his leash caused it or if I had taken him to the vet for what we thought was hearing loss would have helped. We look back and realize that maybe he wasn't hard of hearing, he just didn't feel well. He never came to the door to see us anymore. He never woke up every morning perky and ready for breakfast when asked. We all thought he was going hard of hearing. Now we wonder if he wasn't feeling well and maybe taking him to the vet could have helped us. But I suppose questioning yourself is normal when dealing with this. I miss him so much. I am afraid my husband is going to think I'm weird for being so upset, that's why I come on here and ramble I know there's people who understand what I am going through...and that helps

| Yes, it does take time. I lost my precious little Kayla 3 years ago and still miss her very much. She was the light of my life. I do have another little girl now but that doesn't mean that I don't miss Kayla. I think I always will to some extent. The pain of losing her has lessened but I still have my moments. That may sound strange seeing as how it's been 3 years but that's me. So take all the time you need. I will continue to keep you in my prayers and ask God to comfort you in your time of sorrow.
