She was my friend....I was her human

Post by JunkCollector »

Lots of tears shed.
This was my girl Ali (Alaska)
She was truly special.
She definitely took a big part of my heart with her.

She stopped being a dog years ago for me.
I was her alpha my son her Beta but she loved us all.

Here she is in her glory.
I Never took so many pictures of a "dog"

Thanks buddy.
Her little counterpart is trying to fill some of the void.
Ali taught her a lot.

Our deepest condolences. I know how devastating it is to lose a fur baby; it nearly broke me a few years ago when we lost Sophie much too soon.

Thanks guys
Today will be my first day without her.
The sidekick Lyla did greet me and went outside with me. As Ali would have.

I think she misses her too

So very sorry to hear this! She did seem very happy at the river when I visited and never really treated me like stranger. My sincere condolences my friend!

My heart breaks for you. There is not much on this earth that even comes close to the unconditional love your canine kid has for you. My deepest condolences brother.

Dammit!

A lot of dogs are better people than people. That's obvious on this one just from the photos. So very sorry. :cry:

I believe we should stand on Ceremony. . . while our friends handcuff the sanctimonious little prick and take him away.

She was one of those.
She had a very big pack of friends.
Sako when he visited became part of her pack.

I still get sad over losing Tucker, and it's been like 5 years.

Sorry to hear about your pup. I still get sad when a Facebook memory pic of our pets comes up on my feed.

There is nothing like losing a dog. They bury themselves into our souls like a tick and never let go.

Thanks again for the support.
We got her ashes back and they will be distributed at one of her favorite spots.

The River ......a place she loved since a pup.
Her last day was spent there.
It ate up all she had left ....but she was happy.
