I'm sorry to hear that Eddie. I know from experience what it's like to lose a dog you've had for a really long time.

Cocoa was a beautiful chocolate lab female puppy we had gotten when she was 8 weeks old and my son was about 3 years old. They grew up together. She was a member of the family.

My son and I still talk about the fun trips down to the lake and taking her out in the canoe. She had great canoe manners until she would see a duck. She would jump in and swim after the ducks until she got too tired to swim anymore. Then we'd drag her back into the canoe.

She made it to 13 or 14 years old before her hips started failing and she went deaf. We all cried when we had to put her down.

You've got to get a puppy. No one ever loves you as much as your dog.

Bob
