The Loss of a Pet


Two days from now will mark the second anniversary of the loss of my beloved bichon Oscar. His brother Sonny was lost to us this past March and it is difficult, even months or years later to move on or "get over it". As I know almost all of my fellow pet owners can relate to this, I will tell all of you how I deal with the sadness, evey day, of missing my most faithful and loyal companion. I look at the 13+ years I had with Oscar as a gift...one which will never be taken from me. Although he is gone, every memory, the silly things he would do, both good and bad, will never be far from my mind. When I get in one of those moods where I miss him almost too much to bear, I imagine what it would be like to never have had him in my life and not have these wonderful memories of the sweetest little dog to ever live. And he loved me...more than anyone...no matter what. As the saying goes "Tis better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all." Every time I become despondent over the fact that I will never see that fuzzy white face again, I remember all he gave me and I am thankful for the memories and the gift of having loved him and having him in my life.

Lose Weight...Walk A Dog

We all are guilty of eating too much over the holidays, but did you know you have a built-in personal trainer on four legs? Depending on your pace and the temperament of the dog, a 150 pound person can burn around 205 calories an hour walking their dog! And it's good for the dog too:)

Happy Holidays
