He was given 2-4 weeks to live 5 weeks ago. He is getting weaker, but not to the point where I need to take him in. It will be one of the hardest days in my life. I've had him for 17 years. <br /><br />Mav posted a poem in his honor on my blog in my "Eulegy to Charlie" post. I don't know who the author is, but you are welcome to use it for Vinnie, too. <br /><br />As for TWO new dogs, one a puppy no less, I'm not sure Sucker is the right word. Insane, crazy, and outta your ever lovin' minds seem more fitting!!!k1http://www.blogger.com/profile/12702140651334372462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16882710.post-63112664342617151442009-04-13T08:00:00.000-07:002009-04-13T08:00:00.000-07:002009-04-13T08:00:00.000-07:00so sorry for your loss.RamblingMotherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04148625565336724234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16882710.post-76396578062149235682009-04-12T21:02:00.000-07:002009-04-12T21:02:00.000-07:002009-04-12T21:02:00.000-07:00The loss of a pet is so hard....but getting a new one does help...at least to some extent!

I know how hard losing a beloved pet can be. Next week it will be a year since our 12 yr old chocolate lab, Jessie died. It still brings tears to my eyes to think about her. Delaney wants another dog too, but Dave &amp; I aren&#39;t ready so we&#39;re sort of using Jake as an excuse. And with a curious 14 month old, I&#39;ve got all the excitement I can take. But sometime soon I&#39;m sure a little puppy will come along and we won&#39;t be able to say no any longer. Make a list of all the wonderful things you remember about Vinny and someday you&#39;ll go back to it laughing about all those little doggy things that only he could do! Take Care! :)JulieChatshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03173622991637299103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16882710.post-12101778462225243562009-04-11T10:50:00.000-07:002009-04-11T10:50:00.000-07:002009-04-11T10:50:00.000-07:00Oh, Linda. I'm sorry. We still haven't fully recovered from losing our Bart... he passed away before we met the Tongginator.

There is a great poem, "The rainbow bridge" (You can find it online) that has helped us get through the deaths of some of our pets. We definitely have taken extra time with our cats since Ginger has been diagnosed with leukemia. We know how limited her time is. <BR/>Good luck in finding another dog--there are so many wonderful types out there!The Evans Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09768962155226271935noreply@blogger.com
