Been a little quiet lately, many of my SL friends know that I lost a very important member of my RL life a few days ago... my very best friend of 12 years, Scooter, my little bichon frise. He had a degnerative nerve in his spine and he was in alot of pain (along with arthritis). Broke my heart that he would fall to the ground and could not get back up. He could not sleep, would start to wander off to dark corners of my home and could not eat and would cry out in pain all the time...I had to make the very hard decision to put him to sleep, I was with him in his final moments. I felt really guilty, like maybe there was something else I could have done, but all my family and friends assure me that it was the best thing I could have done for him...that it would have been selfish on my part to keep him like that (which I agree).
Just very hard for me to know that he won't be coming around the corner anymore ... to greet me when I come home, and he was my little "police man" around my home and would never leave my side and would always lick my cheek whenever I was sick or sad. He was my very best friend and I know I'll never find a little guy quite like him for the rest of my days. He was "my" dog and if there was a place where he was not welcome, I didn't enter either. Love you Scooter ... I know that when the time comes for me to leave this earth, you'll be the first one bounding towards to me doing your little "happy run around". Kisses.

I don't know you at all, but wanted to say how sorry I am for your loss. I've been through it myself. It does get easier to bear after a while, so hang in there.
