He was one of those special dogs that always behaved and lived to please. After he passed, I promised myself I'd never have another dog. Wife has been wanting another for a couple years now. Almost relented a couple of times. Im getting old enough now that a healthy dog might outlive me, so maybe its time to let my wife get another one. I know I sure miss my labs.
Yep. I feel. We have three Shelties and one of them just dotes on me. She follows me wherever I go. My wife makes fun of her and says she has Daddy FOMO (fear of missing out). She will break my heart when she goes. We never had children, so the dogs are essentially our kids.
