I have lost 3 great old dogs in the past 3 years one was earlier this month and yes my heart has ached and the pain with each loss was great but the bigger loss would be to have to never had them in my life. While it is sad that dogs have shorter lives then we do if they didn't I would not have had the chance to share my life with as many fantastic dogs that I have. Each has been very special in its own way and no I would not want to have missed any of them.Each has played a role in my life and helped me deal with different periods of life and to that I am very thankful and willing to go through the heart break over and over. I can not imagine the day when I do not have at least one dog in my life.
