Stan: I know words are a weak salve for your grief. I believe people are wounded more by their Dog's leaving them than another human, because Dog's have never hurt us and therefore are perfect in our eyes. I can relate to that terrible sight but may I suggest that when you begin to think of it, quickly recall a day that was perfect with her. I know you won't have a shortage of them to remember. This is the inscription that is on the marble headstone of the dog that was truly the love of my Dad's life. It was the only time I saw him cry with uncontrollable grief.
Warm summer sun, shine brightly here, Warm Southern wind, blow softly here, Green sod above, lie light, lie light, Good night, dear heart; good night, good night.
Our Sincerest Condolences and Prayers
Hallye and Jerry
p.s. If our dogs are not waiting for us some day, then I want to go where they are.

It's hard when a dog dies of old age. It's bitter hard when they die before their time. It's a hard thing you're having to bear. I wish I knew something to say that would help.

Stan, you and Cady are in my thoughts tonight. I'm so, so sorry for your loss.
It's heartbreaking.

Stan so very sorry for your loss. While not children a pup becomes one like a child in our heart as we watch them grow and enjoy the world around them. Again sorry for your loss.

Bad luck Stan. I'm always touched when a friend loses a dog. Same when I lose one.
You'll get another retriever. Hope springs eternal...Geo

I think I'd rather see if I can talk the kids into another grandchild. They make fine bird shaggers ...... until they get old enough to start shooting for their self.

There's only been two girls born into our Hillis line in the last 70 years. All my grandkids are knotheaded boys. Queen and I would not complain for a second if it were to be a sweet little baby girl.
