I can't stop crying. About an hour ago I was walking through the park and I saw a guy with his border collie. I went over to see it, and as soon as I saw it's face I started bawling. The owner was like: ??????? So I told him about Luba and he was very nice. He said that he can't even think about that happening to his dog.
It's so sad. Today is not a good day. -------------------- "My heart has joined the thousand, for my friend stopped running today."

Steph -- I have been doing very well--but today I went out into our big back yard, went deep into the yard---where Ginger hung out. God it was so sad, looking around where he always was--and now is not. it is so empty!! he was so beautiful in the sunshine. He came when he was called---I miss him so much!!! the yard is a sad place without him!!!!! it is so sad to look at all the places he "frequented"--I always looked for him once or twice in the day to make sure he was in the yard. I hate that I lost him. I hate that you lost Luba.
-------------------- Ginger was part Norwegian Forest Cat. When I first took him in he was a meanie, so his full name was "Gingersnap", and I did not change his name after I learned she was a he.

Steph,
I know how rough certain days can be. I'm sorry today was so hard for you! Did it get any easier? Did anything make you feel better? I hope so. Luba wants only the best for you. Write any time. Love, Kathy -------------------- Compassion for all animals. www.earthlings.com

Dear Steph,
I am really sorry. I hope that you're having a better day today. I can relate to your story. This week I saw a black lab that was very similar to my Jordan and I had a very hard time, too. I couldn't bring myself to go over to this dog but just watched from nearby. It was torture. It passed...until the next time, I'm sure. Take care. Jordan's mom |

Thanks everyone. Yes, today is better. I just had a visit with a lady down the street who trains and boards dogs. It was fun having all the furbabies come and meet me. My other dog, Falkor is having a better day with his arthritis too, so overall things are better.
Anin, I had read your post about the black lab, and wondered how I would react to seeing a border collie. Hours later I had my answer. It's tough.

did I tell you all about the day I thought I saw Ginger laying in my back yard? (like he often did)
It made my heart stop!! then I discovered..I was looking at a pile of leaves.

I hear you Gingerspal. Today I thought that I saw Luba in the office, but it was just my bit old black knapsack.
