It has been 9 years and I still feel Catie Bear wag that big tail and every now and then I hear a bark when everyone is accounted for elsewhere!
I don't think any of us who have lost one of these beautiful souls will ever be the same...they truly touch us to our core...they are all so different and every once in a while one of them becomes such a part of us that when they leave us it really does take a part of us with them...

It is the only rotten thing about loving dogs, especially our newfies .... I have way too many newfies and also working dogs at Rainbow Bridge. My heart dogs were so vey connected to me. But Yussie at 18 monh really broke my heart. no noticeable illmess/unwellnes, except for the last day...ripped from me too young. And we all say our newfies are special, but she was incredible, so active and yeat so soft, an odd combination. She could read my mind.....I have had lovely newfies before her and they were also heart dogs, but none affected me so much and have broken my heart so badly

Ronnie, I feel your pain through your words.
My Adam stole my heart in yet a different way. He has his own way of accessing things then figuring out his own way of doing them. If you didn't know him people would say he was not the smartest dog, when that is so far from the truth. He is all business in everything he does and nothing else matters at that time. In his younger years if he was going for a walk, a walk was all he did. If he was pulling his cart, that is what he did. He was and still is so serious about everything. He still thinks he has to go out in the play yard and monitor every dog out there. Just today I was looking out the window watching him. Three dogs were playing but he must have thought it was enough. He tried is best to run about 30 feet to them. He did 'run' the best he could. AND he scattered those dogs like the wind. He still has it! I love my boy and thank God for every day I have with him. I can already feel those tail wags in my heart of days gone by and what he has lost. It is so hard watching him grow older.
