I just keep having crying spells - not like me. My sister had sent me cartoons(my son later put up on BYC for me) where a dog owner is at the gates of heaven and the gate keeper says the dog(whatever name it was) has been telling him for 50 years how great his owner was.
That sets me off every time I think about it. I had so many dogs (since I was a breeder) and wonder if Heaven could hold them all. It's not like I am the only person who had dogs.
The only one I am sure of would be my soulmate (Tots) he always had a tennis ball in his mouth) and till his last day on earth(had to be euthanized) he wanted someone to throw it for him.
Tots would have been 58 if he hadn't passed away. His congestive heart failure was bad enough but, the last couple of days he went into kidney failure. He was only 11. His son who never would bother with a tennis ball made it to 14 (had cancer). Dogs don't cheat and dogs don't lie. Just couldn't take losing another one. If there was one good vet in this world, I sure as heck never found him.
I have two yellow tennis balls left. Tots only liked the white ones - yes, he could tell the difference. They stopped making white ones. I even wrote the tennis ball companies and they said yellow was more visible and the yellow dye MIGHT badly affect a dog. I've checked out pet stores and they only have yellow also.
If I ever land in heaven, I would want to bring him a white one.
but, one of four stove top thingies won't go on. Who cares I can use a different one. Gas stove not electric and I don't care to try and re-light it with gas on(as needed). That's a man's job and since none are here since my father passed many years ago- I can do without..
