jose, i'm so sorry to hear of the passing. i share your emotions and sentiments even though mine wasn't a dog.

i had a cat that saw me started college, graduated dental school, married, the birth of 2 out of 3 children, and babysat them with my parents.

the night before her vet's appointment, every family members spent some time with her, even my wife who was deadly allergic to cats.
as i held her body while she was taking her last breaths, i remembered all the milestones and turning points i went though with her. i was overwhelmed with emotions....tears of sorrow and tears of joy were welling up at various times.

i kept her cremains in my car - my wife thought it was creepy when i would take out some bits of skeletal remains and leave them in various places we had traveled together. my kids (they were about 6 and 4) used to ask to see her cremains and would pet the urn like they were petting the cat - now that was a little creepy....lol. the last of her cremains were buried in my parents' back yard.

cherish the joy and the memories.......after all that's what life is all about.

god bless.

Thanks Everyone.
I knew it was coming and tried preparing myself, but no matter how much you prepare it still hurts.
My house is so quite without him. I wake up in the morning and sit in bed waiting for his bark, but it doesn't come.

He had an adventure filled life. He marked every state in the east coast and marked a few other countries while on vacation with us. lol
