“How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard” Winnie the Pooh/A. A. MilneĀ
My little Brock, the most amazing dog ever, loved you so much, I just wish you could have stayed abit longer. xxx
Ā Ā
āPeople are born so that they learn how to live a good life ā like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right? Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they donāt have to stay as long.ā – Shane
Oh..did you give up Brock? You said you wished you had Brock a bit longer? He is a handsome dog
They found a tumour against his heart last week. There wasn’t anything they could do. We bought him home for a day and the vet came to the house on Saturday to put him to sleep. He went very peacefully, but it’s so awful losing him. xxx
Aww! I’m sorry to hear that. I wanted to ask that but didn’t really know how. He was a cutie and definitely had a lot of personality. You gave him a lot of love in the time that you had him so that’s what counts.
Thank you and it’s true. x He had a very hard start in life, and even though he was only with us for just over a year, he was very happy here. Just very painful at the moment. x
Ohhh sob sob…I am sorry to hear that…šššš¢š¢š¢It is painful to lose a pet. Blessings and much lovešš
Thank you. x It never gets any easier, but this time is feeling especially hard. xxx

Such a beautiful dog. You were so lucky to find each other and you both enriched each other’s lives so much and he was so happy with you and on his new home. It’s so sad that he couldn’t stay for longer but you have a year of really beautiful memories and photos xxxxxx
Brock really was, and we were meant to find each other. š It’s just trying to focus on the positives and the wonderful year he had with us. š But do so wish he was still here. xxx
Iām sure that he loved his time with you just as much as you did. Iām so pleased that you both found each other and he had the gift of a happy year. xxx
Thank you. It really was a gift of a year with him. š xxx
Iām so sorry for your loss loss. They certainly make our days so much happier. šššš¶š¶š¶
Thank you and they really do! They are such an amazing part of our families. xxx
So sad losing a pet especially to a tumor. What a sweet dog.
He was the sweetest dog I have even come across, but trying to focus on the fact that he had such a happy year with us. x Hope you’re ok Camie. xxx
My heart is just breaking for you, what a precious adorable dog, I am so sorry (((hugs)))
Thank you Caren. He really was the sweetest, most gentle dog I have ever come across. x Just wish our little family members could stay with us for longer. xxx
I am sincerely so sorry for your loss [cries with you]
Treasure those happy memories together – treasure them always š
Thank you Mal. I keep looking through all the lovely photos of him to remind me of those times. I just so wish he was still here. xxx
So sorry for your loss. Brock is running in the meadows up there in Heaven and will ever be with you and in your heart.
Thank you Rasma. That’s such a lovely and comforting image to have of him. xxx
Ohh! Ohhh, Hannah. I’m so sorry to hear of this sad news.
Brock looks like the sort of chap who knows you more than you ever imagined. He knew when you were happy, and he knew when you were feeling miserable or in pain. He had a sixth sense, which all dogs have, but it’s only when they’re teamed with the right person that this shines out of them.
He will be with you in spirit Hannah, until you and he meet again.
Bless his beautiful heart. It’s clear you loved him very much.
Sending you all my love and thinking of you, dear friend.
Much love ~ Cobs. xxx
Thank you so much Cobs. Me and Brock were very close, and very similar in alot of ways. I hadn’t had such a strong connection with a dog in a long time. He really was wonderful.
Thank you again for your lovely words. š xxx
Pain and love come together. He looked gorgeous. I hope you will find a new dog soon. Xx
Thank you Cathy. It’s true, but the love is worth it. x I think we’ll have a little break before we get another dog, but I’m sure the next one for us will come along when he’s meant too. š xxx
I felt badly when you told me about Brock, but seeing his smiling face, and yours, and your picture together … well this just makes my heart hurt Heather.
Me and Brock were very close, and he was so happy with us. š Especially when he was tucked up on my side of the bed. š xxx
I’m so sorry to hear of your loss – doubly hard as you yourself are such a tender heart.
Thank you. x We’re going away for a few days tomorrow which I think might help. It’s very hard being here at the moment without him. xx I hope you’re having a lovely week. š xxx
don’t know why my comment doesn’t have my normal avatar and name – it’s me, laura bruno lilly, not anonymous!
I thought it was you! But didn’t want to assume or just reply with ‘who’s this?’ lol. š xxx
So sorry to hear of your loss – doubly so as you are such a tender-heart.
(not sure this went through the first time so am sending it again)
It has come through to me! š Even though you’re just coming up as ‘someone’… It’s on a setting that the first post has to be approved but then it should always pop up straight away. š xxx
got it! trying something new to see if my ‘normal’ avatar comes up this time.
It’s worked that time! š What did you do that was different? xxx
Aw, he really is beautiful. I’m so sorry xxx
Thank you Gracie. xxx
I am so sorry Heather. If only we could keep our dear pet friends forever…
Massive hugs to you xx
I so wish we could too. xx And thank you Brigid, the hugs are very much appreciated at the moment. š xxx
I’m so sorry for your loss, Dizzy. I know how it’s like to lose a pet. It’s like losing a close friend. Last week, two of my kittens passed away within three days. ~ Red Rose-Crown
It really is, they become part of our family and our best friends. I am so sorry to hear about your recent losses. It’s so hard and we miss them so much. Sending lots of hugs. xxx
So sorry for your loss
Thank you Steve. xxx
Absolutely beautiful little dog! I know he brought you so much job and I am so sorry for your loss. Even though he isn’t here physically, he will always carry on in your heart. Sending you LOTS of HUGS!!!
Thank you Alyssa. It’s just so hard when they have to go, I so wish he could have stayed with us for abit longer, we only had him just over a year and he was such an amazing dog. x Thank you so much for your kind words, I need to remember that he is always with me in my heart. Thank you. xxx
I’m so sorry <3 Losing pets is hard.
Thank you Lucy. xxx
Sorry to read about sweet Brock! What a beautiful dog who looks happy and who had a wonderful life. Praying for you! *HUGS* šš¤
Thank you Christy. xxx
My heart goes out to you. Your dog was adorable.
I wonder what happened to your like button?
Thank you Winnie, he was so beautiful. xx And no idea about the like button. I have seem people on wordpress.org with one, but no idea how to get it myself! š xxx
I am so sorry, such pain and heartache when a member of the family, be it human or animal, suffers and leaves us too soon. I cried for so long and my heart still hurts to think of my old dog, Robbie, who we had to have put down 6 years ago now because he was ill. You were blessed to have each other and I hope you can hold on to those precious memories.
I feel it’s inappropriate to say this now but I will anyway – I like the new blog layout, very stylish š
Sending hugs and love at such a hard time š·Ā ā„
Caz
Thank you Caz. It is so hard when it’s there time to leave us. I still keep expecting to see Brock pottering around the house, or hear his little feet. I’m spending abit of time each day just remembering him when he was here, and it is helping abit, I just miss him so much though. x What sort of dog was Robbie? Have you had another dog since? xx And thank you for your comment about the blog. š xxx
I’m so very sorry for your loss. Brock sounds like he was an amazing companion. May he be at peace, and may you find comfort in remembering all the good times you had together. <3
Thank you. xxx
Oh, Heather, I’m so, so sorry! I know how hard it is to loss your beloved pet: I still miss Branna every day and it’s been almost a year. They are so special. I know Brock was happy and loved while you had him and gave you lots of love in return. I hope his memories give you a lot of comfort! Lots of hugs! xxx
Thank you Steph. x I remember when you lost Branna, it’s so hard when it’s their time to go. You just want them to stay forever! I’m trying to focus on the memories and not how much I miss him. x Thank you again. xxx
You’re so welcome! I think it really is the hardest thing that you go through unless you lose a child or maybe a spouse or parent. They just love you so unconditional. It’s hard to focus on that, and I think I cried for weeks and weeks and sometimes still do. You’re welcome! xxx <3 Take care!!
A mere month later Iām catching up on the lives of those outside of myselfš.
I was so sad to read that you lost your fur baby! Iām so very sorry Heather.
Thank you Jennifer. It’s still very hard, but I’ll get there. They really are our little babies. š xxx
