    Lori, I am heartbroken for you guys. Having been through this too many times, I know some of what you are going through, and how hard it is. I'm glad I got to meet Lazy at your open house last September. Hugs and prayers

    Lori, Peter, and Hannah...I'm so sorry for the loss of your sweet baby Lazy. I know you all made his life happy and full of love, as he did yours. That's what matters. He'll be waiting for you at the Bridge with sloppy kisses and ready to play.

    Lorie and Peter: so very sorry for your loss. There is very little that can compare to the vulnerability, dependency, and trust that our pets bestow on us. And when they leave us the loss is sharp and piercing. What a good dog Lazy has been- it was an honour to have known him, if only thru your blog.

    I think our fur babies have met one another and are having discussions about their "crazy stitcher moms" and totally adorable Dads. All our fur babies are there to welcome yours. We are all here to hold you in our thoughts and prayers as you go through this. As we have lost ours we always take time to thank God for connecting their paths to ours so we could all be so blessed to have one another. sending you lots of hugs.

    Our sweet furbabies means so much to us and do so much for us; it's no wonder we grieve so when they leave us. Lazy has taken a part of your hearts with him, but leaves a part of his with you always. He waits patiently for you.

    We lost our Golden girl last November, two months after her cancer diagnosis. I had a long time to say good-bye, that helped. Now our border Collie is 15 and I'm thankful for everyday. I've seen your animal friends so many times in posts that I feel I am grieving for Lazy and Buddy too. Thank you for sharing them.

    Your tribute to dear Lazy was so touching. I lost my dear fuzzy boy a little over a year ago and the only consolation is that I know he is with those who went before him and that he and the others will be waiting for me. Thank you for the loving reminder.
