I am so, so, so sorry. I had to put my beloved dog Sam down a few years ago and it still hurts like crazy to think about it. I found solace in remembering the good times and funny stories with Sam and spending as much time as possible around the people I love. I wish you all the best.
I just lost my sweet and beautiful dog Temmoku a couple of weeks ago quite suddenly. I understand how no words can express the pain. I'm so sad for you loss. The good times we shared in the 10 1/2 years we had together is both soothing and hurt me. Although, as the days go by, the hurt is lessening a bit. I wish the same for you.
Susan, This is only the second time I have read your blog after my sister forwarded me the link. My husband and I live in Kentucky and have a flock of 25 sheep, and my best friend grazes her commercial flock on our farm. This morning I decided to look at your blog, and my heart just broke when I read you had lost a dog just this morning. We have three working Great Pyrenees and over the past eight years have lost two others, one a Maremma,to a car. You are right-there are no words, just a horrible, horrible pain. They are such amazing, majestic animals, and I can only offer you my deepest sympathy. Meaningless words, I know, but as I looked through your photos of all the gorgeous lambs and kids, I am reminded of the cycle of life that we are super-exposed to on the farm. I know that the amount of sorrow you are feeling is equal to the amount of joy Bixcotti brought you. Pam
I read your blog every day and I didn't realize how attached I had become to you and your animals until I started crying. I know it's painful to lose a pet, especially one so close to us. And as I sit trying not to cry even more, I am so so sorry. I hope everything will be alright.
Oh, Susan. It's so hard to lose an old friend. I can tell you from experience that you will be able to think of your sweet Biscotti with great fondness and no pain a year from now. But the road from here to there is so hard.
Oh, Susan, I am so sorry for your loss. Losing a pet is like losing a family member. Your dogs were so great when we visited - so attentive with the sheep and goats! I am sure that Fettucini will be lost for awhile without Biscotti, but perhaps you can find comfort in each other. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. Kathy (Trinity's mom)
Oh God, Oh God, Oh God ... that's exactly how I lost Katy, and there are no words ... I am SO sorry. About the only comfort is that she didn't have time to suffer, but ... it's not much. I know just how this feels, and I'm sending you huge hugs ....
I lost my beloved little dog Sky this way in the beautiful springtime. It was terrible how that beautiful day and the days afterward turned so black. She will have been gone for 9 years this spring and I still remember her with love and miss her.
Susan, how awful. Your wonderful dogs were the highlight of our visit to Felix Neck for my son - he spoke of them often after that. My thoughts are with you.
Susan - I am so sorry for your great loss. Know that you and your loved ones - both two and four legged - are held in my heart and prayers. Biscotti is over the Rainbow Bridge waiting for you. She is in good company with our beloved Heidi and Duffy and many others and forever young!
Susan - you welcomed us all to share in the joys of the farm and now we share the sorrow. You are right - there are no words. Just tears. Our thoughts are with you and all the farm.
There are no words I can say to ease your pain. When we lost our last pet, I received a card with The Rainbow Bridge poem. www.rainbowsbridge.com/Poem.htm I was not able to finish it for many months but now when I read it I can remember Michael with the pain in my heart but also with the joy he brought us. You and yours are in my prayers and I hope when you are able to read this poem it will bring you a small measure of comfort.
Oh how heartbreaking. Nothing compares to the love and devotion of a dog, and unfortunately the same can be said of the pain of loss when one passes. I send you all my wishes for comfort for you and your family of humans and other animals.
I'm so sorry. I don't know what I would do if that happened to my dog -- I would certainly not have the language for it either. Deepest condolences to you, your human family and your animal family (especially Fettucini).
I am so sorry. I got to see Biscotti when I was in MV in July. My heart is breaking for you. If I could see you I would hug you, so consider this a cyber hug.
Bless you........you are in my thoughts and prayers.
I am so sorry. It's just rips your your heart apart when you can't hold on to one you love so much. Especially one who has loved you so unconditionally. Please know that you and your love ones are in our thoughts and prayers.
I am devastated for you. It's terrible to lose a member of the family. Biscotti had such a beautiful doggy smile, and obviously had a wonderful life with you. I'm so sorry she's gone.
I am so sorry. There are no good times to lose a friend, a pet, a fellow-shepherd, but this was surely a particularly tough time. I hope everysheep's health issues have cleared up, and that you have the love and understanding of those nearby as well as us in cyberspace.
Susan...Biscotti will always be watching over your flock. No matter what. She helped you realize your dream, and you provided her with an amazing chance to live out her's. I am so sorry.
oscar is being treated for heart worms he got before i rescued him and i got him shortly after baby bear died. i share your tears! i am so glad it was fast, if she had to go. ((((((hugs)))))
I am so very sorry to hear this devastating news! It's true, there are no words when we loose a cherished member of our family. Please know you and yours are in our thoughts, in our hearts and in our prayers.
Sometimes you just gotta cry!
Please do let us know if there is anything at all we can do! I'm sure I am not the only one who would jump in a car (train, bus, airplane) and help in any way I am able!
This is truly heartbreaking. Biscotti was a majestic dog; so, so, SO lucky to have been part of your family. Please know that we are thinking of you, Susan. Sending you Big Hugs.
Oh, Susan. I just heard. I am devastated and can completely understand your sadness. I don't know how to ease your pain, but I am thinking of you and Patrick and Erin and of course Fettucini. This is horrible and my heart breaks for you. Let me know if there is anything I can do. Jess
Cant express how sorry I feel about the loss of your dog. It's easy to say remember the good times, but hard to do at times like this.Our dog is sometimes the best part of us, I heard somewhere "make me the good person my dog thinks I am".The lost ones are always in our hearts.

So sad, I'm so sorry Susie! I know the whole family (people, dogs, sheep, and goats) will miss her.
I'm so sorry to hear that. She sounded like a wonderful dog from all your posts.
Oh God, Oh God, Oh God ... that's exactly how I lost Katy, and there are no words ... I am SO sorry. About the only comfort is that she didn't have time to suffer, but ... it's not much. I know just how this feels, and I'm sending you huge hugs ....
Oh, god, Susie. I am so so sorry. I had a dog die from chocolate poisoning, so I know the shock and grief. My thoughts are with you.

I am so sorry for your loss. I'm more attached to the animals in my life than I am most people I know. My heart goes out to you.
Beauty without vanity, strength without insolence, courage without ferocity, and all the virtues of man without his vices.
I am so sorry.
I lost a cat this way and it was one of the worst days of my life. I am so sorry.
