As someone whose dog, Neptune, had a serious heart condition that we knew about four years before he died, enjoy your dog now and try (easier than it sounds I know) to enjoy each day with them. I worried so much about Neptune, that once he was gone, I realized I should have just realized what would come would come, and enjoy each gift each day was before the end.<br /><br />It truly is the one part of owning a dog that completely sucks (that they are probably not going to live as long as you do).Winterskiprincesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17540416561657173099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29002686.post-33008582658668960362011-11-09T12:18:46.554-05:002011-11-09T12:18:46.554-05:00Life sounds good.

I think maybe people that were brought up by heartless/soulless parents thrive on the unconditional love we get from our canine children.<br /><br />Never met a dog I didn't like, never owned a dog I didn't love to pieces...people, meh, not so much!<br /><br />My six year old GSD, Schindler, has just been diagnosed with a rare, inoperable bone cancer. He's still pretty comfortable but when the time comes, I can honestly say I will miss him more than I miss my NPs.mulderfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07500535934417551223noreply@blogger.com
