I haven't been to the beach since the day before himself crossed rainbow bridge..We took him there as it was one of his favourite places where he chased the egrets that he would never catch and swam with me in the water his big paws ploughing through the salt water and the most beautiful smile on his face with his stunning soulful eyes staring at me always ...
I took Sadie today she swam in the sea loving the waves and me throwing sticks for her ...
I can't thank enough my two beautiful dogs for giving me the love and joy that I will carry with me always ...
Just missing himself today a lot 🥺🥺....

Totally understandable Bb9 as Stan was very special. Sadie is too of course and she seems to love the beach and sea. Wonderful picture of a lovely girl.
Thanks Carole today's been dreadful I hate that some days are like this... My eyes are raw and I'm hoping tomorrow my mood will have lifted ...I hope your well Mrs 🩷🩷🩷
Animals of all kinds touch our hearts and Stan was really rescued by you so lived his best life. You must miss him and will have good days and not so good days. I remember sobbing over the loss of our beloved cat Tessa. I now remember her fondly and smile at the memories without crying. You will get there. Enjoy your weekend.
I’m ok thank you and keeping a close eye on Pete as he can’t do very much just now. He’s better at home than in hospital though. Xxx🩷🥰🤗
A lovely picture. What a beautiful soft colour the sea is. I hope eventually the grief will soften and the beach will hold only happy memories of dear Stan. xxx
Thankyou Alberta I'm a bit better today ... I hold lots of happy memories of him that's why it's hurts ...I seem to get those days like yesterday when everything is just about him he's everywhere I look but not being able to snuggle with him again....
Thankyou yes I'm better today I think going to the beach made it raw again for us ... He was my soul mate and though most of the time I'm completely fine with beautiful memories of him I just have terrible days where its all so painful again ... 💔
Really well done Blackbird9, for getting back to the beach. I do get how you feel, as still hard when I think of/see photos of my late little Suzy the Yorkie (gone now nearly 18 months). I think the sadness remains but find that the sharpness of it softens with time. I wish you Happy Memories. xxx
i had a dog as a child, i still remember the day i came from school to find a neighbour taking him for a walk. I was 11 or 12 and didnt know she was taking to the vet as mum couldnt do it . so I patted him and had a cuddle. It was his last day and I didnt know it.
Can still see him, and feel his warmth now--- 75 years later. You never get over the death of a friend ,and a dog is a real friend , and you always have them in your memory.
I love this photo BB and hope today your feeling a little better. Its terrible to lose the companions we got to love in such special ways. Stan wove his way through our hearts too seeing him on here and the antics he got upto. Knowing that you gave him so much love in his last years makes it all worthwhile and the pain will ease in time x
Many thanks my lovley ..I'm much much better today .
So glad I took Sadie as she had the best time in the sea and enjoying the waves ... She made friends with a little black cocker spaniel same breed as himself ....
I think that's why it knocked me quickly and hard yesterday he was born in May same month as Stan passed over the bridge ...
I know everyone adored him he had that grace about him and drew people to him ❤️❤️
It’s the things like that that can set us off. I saw a dog recently whose face was just like our last dog and I had a lump in my throat. It’s nearly nine years since we took him on his last journey. We kept bumping into a couple of men who had recently lost their spaniel. Molly reminded them of their dog. They made such a fuss of her I think they would have taken her if they could. We wouldn’t have them in our homes if they didn’t make us happy 💕.
It's so very wrong they don't live long enough in my eyes ..It's so heartbreaking when we get sharp reminders like seeing a face or having a deep moment that's so real 💔
Great picture, Looking at the sea and Sadie Makes me jealous. I cant get around so much now even worse the devils took my driving licence away.. a well , Back into the bathtub with my imagination,,
Lovley picture you never get over loss off a pet I use to have German shepherds and I know its heart breaking but on a lighter note 50 years that's wonderfull take care
German shepherd we had she was 16 and youreowen 17 years we have been very lucky to have them years as there life span is barely over 8 like me you would have very upset there are fine breed off dog
You capture Stan so well in your opening paragraph; almost makes me want to gulp as all the photos you shared with us flash through my mind. There is something Godly about the relationship between dog and owner; I can even invent a new adjective, "dogly" where the deepest love is shared between an animal and a human being. I wont forget your opening paragraph - it is just 'golden'. ❤️
Ahhhh thankyou that's so very much appreciated I post here about him and how I feel cause I know the ones that knew him through just a picture will understand..Mostly everyone on here fell in love with himself and his beautiful soul ... I'm feeling better today and I appreciate everyone's lovley comments ....🩷
Well bb I still miss my Sam who’s been gone a few years. The love these animals have for us is amazing. I miss my cuddles and being swamped and the cries if I left him- the big softie. I saw a GSD today doing exactly the same outside a shop , one owner inside and another with him but crying all the same. Sending you big hugs my friend 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗. Aww Susie looks like she’s enjoying herself xx
