My condolences Lenny. Never easy, but time will dull the pain. She had a good run with a good family. That's all a dog could ever ask for!

thanks so much for the kind words everybody, and for those of you that recently experienced the same, God bless you.


I think it was the 3rd picture where Ollie was sitting on the couch resting her head and looking out the window, she would just sit there and wait for my wife to come home or for me. She did some things other dogs of ours didn't and that's what so cool about dogs, they have such personalities. If Ollie wanted to be scratched, she would come over to you and rest her chin on your leg or arm and just sit there starring. We never did teach her many tricks but since a pup she naturally sat up like one of the picks with her paws in the air while you hold her feet,,,she taught us that one. She also sat on stairs like people with one leg down. Time will heal the wounds and like Ezra said, we will adopt a dog in need as we have done in the past. Ollies mom Tia was a rescue just as Jackie who was before Tia. Thanks again everybody, this is what makes JD site so awesome, friends sharing burdens and becoming family.

My thoughts are with you and your family Lenny, especially your kids, it can be especially hard for them! Dogs are such a special gift to us, I just wish they had much longer life spans. We put our Jack Russell down about 10 months ago and we still have tough days but it does get much better. Take care bud!!

Sorry to hear this Lenny. Remind yourself that this is part of the Life Cycle and somewhere soon a dog is being born that will fill that void. Something I read not long ago...

"The dog is not only Man's Best Friend, some days your dog is your Only Friend"

Rest in Peace Ollie and welcome to Rainbow Bridge https://rainbowsbridge.com/poem.htm

Sincere condolences Lenny. Ollie was a gift, as they all are.
Having worn these shoes recently, I am grateful you were able to provide her with an as comfortable departure as possible in her time of need.
Good on you, and God Speed.

Dog Mans Best Friend - what an understatement.
