I'm so sorry for your loss, Brenda. Hope you can support each other with DH in these trying times.
Oh no, I am so so sorry. I tear up seeing his beautiful face in that picture. What a treasure to have been a part of his family. Thinking of you my dear...
Oh I'm so sorry for your loss. Pets really are part of the family. I have a soft spot for goldens as well.
Take care.

I am so sorry. Dogs are the very best. ((HUGS))
Oh Brenda, I'm so sorry. He was a handsome, handsome boy.
Oh Brenda.
I'm so sorry. What a beautiful picture you posted of Jordan.
I'm thinking of you and M. Many hugs.
I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. He was a beautiful dog and looked extremely well loved and cared for in the photo you posted of him. There are tears in my eyes as I type this as I know how they are a huge part of the family. May you always feel his loving presence around you.
What a sweet looking dog. I'm sorry. {{hugs}}
I'm so, so sorry.
Huge hugs for you.
I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry for the loss of your friend and family member. I'm sure he was a great comfort to you in hard times. Wishing that he is watching down on you now in doggie heaven. (((Hugs)))
I'm so sorry! (((Hugs)))
I have a german shepherd and the only part I hate about having him is the knowledge that we will probably outlive him. I hate even thinking of that...
Oh I'm so, so sorry. He's beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.
I'm so sorry hon. :(
(hugs)
I'm so sorry, Brenda. It sounds like he was a good old guy. I know how hard it is to lose a member of the family, especially a teddy bear like Jordan. You and DH are in my thoughts. Sending you many hugs.
delurking to say how sorry i am for your loss.
I never cried so hard or so long in my life as when I lost my beloved 13-year old cat. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Someone gave me this poem, and I send to you now, thinking of you~~~~~
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

What a beautiful dog!
I'm so sorry for your loss. Goldens are amazing dogs, I bet you have so many warm memories!
Oh Brenda! I am so, so sorry about your sweet furbaby! What a beautiful face. I know you will miss him but just remember what a wonderful life he had with you guys.
You know I have been in your spot not too long ago. If you need an ear, I am here for you!
I'm very sorry. Losing an animal companion is a very difficult thing, on top of everything you have been experiencing as well. Remember to take care of yourself.
hugs
Oh Brenda, I'm so sorry for your loss. Losing a pet is so painful, even when they are geriatric and you can kind of anticipate it ... it doesn't take away the pain.
Hugs,
Polly

I'm so sorry for your loss.
So very sorry for the loss of your beautiful doggie.
I just love this picture...but it breaks my heart. I'm so sorry.
Oh, I'm so sorry. He's beautiful.
Oh no! I'm so sorry. We lost our 10 1/2 year old daughterdog almost a year ago. We referred to her as daughterdog because she truly was like our child. So, so sad for you today :(
Brenda,
I am so sorry for your loss! Saying goodbye to a furbaby is never easy. Thinking of you and DH!
Good-bye beautiful Bear. He's probably playing with my old guy who left me almost six years ago.
My heart breaks for you - I know what it's like to lose one of these beautiful little ones. But you obviously loved him so what a lucky life he had.
So sorry. Thinking of you.
I'm sorry for your loss. ((hugs))
I am so very sorry for your loss. I lost one of my 2 Labs last February, and it was absolutely devastating. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this sad time. What a beautiful dog Jordan was....
---------------------------
If you bury her in this spot she will come to you when you call,
come to you over the grim, dim frontiers of death
and down the well remembered path and to your side again.
An though you may call a dozen living dogs to heel
they shall not growl at her nor resent her coming
for she belongs there.
People may scoff at you who see no lightest blade of grass
bent by her footfall, who hear no whimper,
people who have never really had a dog.
Smile at them, for you shall know
something that is hidden from them.
The one best place to bury a good dog is in the heart of her master.

Oh Brenda, I'm so sorry for your loss. Losing a beloved pet is never easy. Sending you lots of hugs.
Another person "delurking" to say I am so sorry for your loss. May you find comfort and kindness in the most unexpected places in the days and weeks ahead.
Beautiful boy.
I'm sorry.
I am so sorry, Brenda. I am tearing up at his beautiful, sweet face in that picture. He was a lucky guy to have had happy life with you. Hugs.
Another person de-lurking to say how sorry I am for your loss. He looks so gorgeous. I still miss my dog who I lost 20 years ago. You're not alone in mourning a much-loved doggy companion:

I am so sorry for your loss! I am sure your Fur Baby will be dearly missed! Prayers for you that God will bring you peace during this time.
I'm so sorry.
Brenda - I am so sorry for your loss. You are in my prayers.
Much love -
Tara
Oh, Bear looked like such a sweetheart. What a gorgeous guy! My heart goes out to you and your family. I am sure he will be so very missed and I am certain he had a wonderful, full life with you.
I lost my sweet girl a year ago this January and my heart still aches and probably always will. I hope your Bear and my Kyra get a chance to meet up at the big dog park in the sky and play forever, just like they did when they were young. Thinking of you...
oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, NOooooooo!
I am so sorry, so very, very sorry.
I'm so sorry. There's really nothing worse than battling infertility and losing your beloved dog in the process. It about killed me when our Buddy died.
Even though we don't know each other, I'll be praying for you to find peace and comfort at this horrible time.
Oh, I'm so sorry! I can tell from what you've written that he truly had a lucky life, a loved and cherished time here with you.
Sending you lots of sweet wishes.
Oh Brenda! Losing our fur-children is so indescribably devastating (even after they've lived long, happy lives!).
I'm so sorry that you had to say goodbye to your beautiful Jordan. =(
I hope you're hanging in there. I know the first few days after their passing tends to be the worst. Hang on to your hubs and share fond memories of your sweet boy. *hugs*
I am so sorry. It is so hard to lose them! They are truly part of the family.
Awww sweetie I am so sorry! Hugs coming right out to you!!

=(((( I'm so sorry B!!! As if you didn't have enough heart ache on your plate. Hugs
I'm so so sorry. He looks incredibly sweet--it brings tears to my eyes every time I read about someone's beloved pooch passing on. I'm absolutely NOT ready for that, and I know that our Sierra's time won't last forever. Sending you many, many hugs...

I'm so sorry...Dogs are truly part of the family - especially dogs like these. Hugs...
I am so sorry. :(
What a gorgeous photo of your sweet furbaby Jordan (Bear). I am so sorry for your loss. I can well imagine the light he brought to your life.
Thinking of you.
Thank you all so much for your kind thoughts and sentiments. We really miss that old ball of fur, but know he is without pain now.
He was by far the best golden retriever we could have ever asked for and will likely never have another because we already know what the "best" is like.
Thanks so much, sweet friends.
I just found your blog and have so enjoyed reading your descriptions of life.
This post with picture and dates moved me to tears. I am so, so sorry for your loss. A furry friend brings so much joy, and very little back-talk.
Hugs,
Jem
