O/T I have been away from JMG for several days as our
beloved dog, Benni (Benedict Bentley) who had degenerative myelopathy,
took a turn for the worst on last Friday. On our visit to the vet on
Saturday morning we said goodbye forever to our boy. It was most
heartwrenching and anguishing and we sobbed and are still grieving. When
it comes to a beloved pet being put down, all the forest fires and
pandemics and idiots and politicians just become so much background
noise. I have posted a memorial and some photos on my blog,

That brings a tear to my eyes every time I read it! Hugs to RRebel.
TheManicMechanic RRebel • I'm so sorry. All that unconditional love and unbridled joy that dogs give to us all the time finds a home in your heart like nothing else. It's real, it's pure, and it's honest. And when it's gone, the hole it leaves is vast and empty. I still get upset when I'm reminded of what I lost years ago, but I have to remind myself I was lucky enough to experience it.

I'm sorry to hear of your loss. We've been through it many times over the years and it never gets easier.

Even when it's absolutely the right thing to do, saying goodbye to a four-legged family member is always painful. But it's still the right thing. Benni was as lucky to have you as you were to have him.

Unlimited sympathy ,although we have all been through it. We are always caught unaware and our pets, the better angels of our lives leave us sad and wanting. Not what they would ever have wanted alive. I am so happy for all the years you had and so sad for your unbearable loss. ♥️

Losing a pet is just so hard.
Sending good thoughts.
My eyes filled with tears when I read that cartoon. My heart is with you guys. I fell in love with Benny from this distance. He was a wonder dog and you were so lucky to have each other for so many years. Sending hugs from Spain.
Thanks for your kind thoughts.
A thank you from New Mexico for your kind words.
So sorry to learn that Benni, your faithful dog and true, has passed over the Rainbow Bridge. That's the problem with taking a blog break -- I miss all the news when it happens. Sending hugs and best wishes for hearts-ease.
Welcome back. Thanks for your hugs.
