I never would've imagined that saying good-bye to a pet would be so incredibly hard. He was my good friend. Always happy to see us. Loved playing with us. And, yes, as the old addage says, very faithful.
Just a couple days after he was gone (last week), my son said, "Mommy, now that Fudgie is gone, who will guard our house? The badgers will get us now." It was just too cute, but a real concern for our 7-year-old. It's been so hard on the kids, too.
He was an outdoor dog, but the winters were too cold. We rigged up a nice, warm spot for him in our garage. He loved it in there.
These pictures below are of the day we brought him home 3 years ago...
Our youngest loving on him...
I will definately be scrapbooking a page of the greatest dog ever. We'll miss you, boy.
TTFN,
Debi

Sorry I missed this event in the life of your family! When we lost our little Missy, it was like losing a part of the family. Enjoy keeping up with you other places, but didn't realize it had been that long since I'd been here. How is life? I think of you often with every turn of world events...and when I do, I always pray for you!
So sad to have to part with a beloved pet. Our dog was 17 when she finally left us, so I can identify. I enjoyed perusing your blog!
