I'm sorry for the loss of Norman brother.  I've lost some of my beloved 4 legged companions in the same way, and it is hard.  Prayers sent.

Ken,
So sorry to hear of your loss. Dogs occupy places in our hearts that we don't understand but feel very empty at passing. Good memories will, I pray, begin to fill those voids and soften the hard edge of loss.
God's Peace,

Sorry for your loss, I lost my best buddy about 3 weeks ago. Still think of him everyday. I had to take him to the vet and have him put down. I stayed with him til the end. It was really hard on everyone.

Ken,

Nobody can improve much on what Grinch said and said well!

I will only add that you've been down this path with Gertrude and you know that you will come thru this!

As Larry said, their memories will start to fill in the edges of the dark hole. Those pups worked hard to make life better, they'd want that to be how it is with you and the Mrs. in their absence.

Hang in there and keep the Son in your eyes, bro.

Peace...

Sorry to hear that, Ken.  Thoughts and prayers with you and the family.  


 
Quote
The Power of the Dog
by
Rudyard Kipling

There is sorrow enough in the natural way
From men and women to fill our day;
And when we are certain of sorrow in store,
Why do we always arrange for more?
Brothers and sisters, I bid you beware
Of giving your heart to a dog to tear.

Buy a pup and your money will buy
Love unflinching that cannot lie--
Perfect passsion and worship fed
By a kick in the ribs or a pat on the head.
Nevertheless it is hardly fair
To risk your heart to a dog to tear.

When the fourteen years which Nature permits
Are closing in asthma, or tumour, or fits,
And the vet's unspoken prescription runs
To lethal chambers or loaded guns,
Then you will find--it's your own affair--
But ... you've given your heart to a dog to tear.

When the body that lived at your single will,
With its whimper of welcome, is stilled (how still!)
When the spirit that answered your every mood
Is gone--wherever it goes--for good,
You will discover how much you care,
And will give your heart to a dog to tear.

We've sorrow enough in the natural way,
When it comes to burying Christian clay.
Our loves are not given, but only lent,
At compound interest of cent per cent.
Though it is not always the case, I believe,
That the longer we've kept 'em, the more do we grieve:

For, when debts are payable, right or wrong,
A short-term loan is as bad as a long--
So why in--Heaven (before we are there)
Should we give our hearts to a dog to tear?

I'm very sorry to hear of your loss Ken.  Dogs have a way of touching the recesses of our heart.  Their memory will stay with you forever.

I still smile when I look at photos of dogs that were part of my life....some long ago.  They are on this earth way too short of a time...but long enough for us to know that they will be buried in our hearts for much longer.

Marjorie Garber once said:  "If you have a dog, you will most likely outlive it; to get a dog is to open yourself to profound joy and, prospectively, to equally profound sadness."

My heart goes out to you and your family.  May the memories of Norman stay with you forever and bring you the joy that he did in life.

Those are beautiful dogs men.  The poem by Kipling is wonderful too.  I have to say that it has applied to me a number of times in this life.
