A few years ago we had two dogs that had been together since she was a years old and he was just a puppy. After some 16 years together, Wuppie passed in the morning and we found Bub that afternoon. I guess he just couldn't be without her. Said we wouldn't get anymore dogs, but we did a rescue and now have Timmy, a spoiled rotten chiwennie and Chewy the rat terror, er, terrier. LOL You know when it's time to find another pet. They just come into your heart.
