It's a sad time, but FYI OSAGE ROOST will be pulling the plug at the end of the month. It's been a great 15 years since the start, but it's hardly ever used now and time to move on!
Lonnie---dog people all understand and feel your loss.....its a $#@ tough thing.They earn a part of the family and become a true friend no doubt. Our companions are not with us long enough, as their life span is alot shorter than ours. Ya know it when ya bring them home, but its something ya ignore until ya have to face that day. I have Goldens, I have hunted with them and they are a very important part of my life also. So far, I have battled cancer in two of them and eventually had to put them down. I was a wreck let me say. They were companions as I stated.Get back in the game friend. Get another companion,not a replacement, as there will never be that, but you will find that a new COMPANION will find another place in your heart to share time with .Sorry for your loss
Called my buddy this morning to see if I could still get the pup. I am going when I get off work to pick her up. She is a lab mix like ol Fletch but she is yellow and Fletch was brown. I remarried sence my wife died 10 years ago and Fletch took right to Kathy and she took right to him. Kathy works out of town and has not been home sence Fletch died. Fletch always meets her at the car when she pulls in, on Friday eve. This Friday when she pulls in I am going to be standing there with (our) new lab mix pup. Maybe she won't start crying. I am not replacing Fletch I am just getting me a new buddy.
