RE: [pyrnet] Goodbye Arthur

[sdobscha <sdobscha@LNMTA.bentley.edu>]

It's hard to read these emails because i lost my precious czar 3 years ago 
yesterday (july 3rd).  i am always melancholy around july 4th weekend because 
i'm always reminded of that horrible drive to the animal hospital and the even 
more horrible decision to have to put an animal to sleep.  it still haunts me 
even though it was the 'right' thing to do.

oh well i still have my grumpy rescue seamus who 85% of the time is a joy to 
have in my life.  a really silly pyr, not the austere, human like qualities 
that czar had.  but as i'm watching him right now trying to catch a fly with 
his mouth i feel happy that i 'got back on the horse' after czar's death.  
with some dogs there seems to be no replacement.  no dog is an actual 
replacement but there are some who's memories live on in our hearts larger and 
brighter than others.


happy independence day, can we rename it dependence day because i have a pyr 
and two cats who depend on me every day!
