Margaret, this brought a tear to my eye. A moving tribute to a little dog with a big personality and the photos were lovely. He obviously had a wonderful life with you – I love all of your dog posts – you get how transformative the love of a good dog can be. My condolences for your loss.

I’m so sorry – I just found out about Ralph’s passing and just wanted to reach out. I had to put my first pup to sleep last year – she was only 4- her name was Marilyn – she got her name because she wiggled her butt when she walked like Marilyn Monroe. My friends were with me when I adopted her from a rescue group at PetSmart. She was this little perfectly gorgeous white puppy – 1/2 JRT and 1/2 Corgi. I was actually afraid to ask about her as I was sure someone had already adopted her. One of the volunteers noticed me looking at her and let me hold her. I was a goner… She was my whole world. I eventually adopted 3 other rescue dogs. Last year Marilyn had seizures and was becoming violent towards the other dogs. It culminated in a fight – really bad. I was heart broken but realized, after talking to many vets, that there was nothing I could do so I had her put to sleep. I ended up getting her name tattooed in a heart on my arm. I hope she’s somewhere riding shotgun with my Aunt Rachel in her ’59 T-Bird going for Arby’s Roast Beef sandwiches.

HUGS from us to you and yours!

Thank you for saying what I cannot. I just recently put down my childhood dog of 18 years. As a 20-something, I can hardly remember a life without that dog at my heels. I don’t know how to do this without him. If you figure it out, let me know. I wish you the very best.

Words aren’t much comfort when we lose our furry loves. They never used them and yet always spoke to our hearts. I’m sorry for your loss and hope that someday memories of your Ralph will fill you with smiles and laughter.

There’s nothing I can say that other people have not said in the comments but I’m so sorry for your loss; Ralph will always be part of you.
