Wonderful pics, allipets.

Some dogs touch us so deeply. There is an ache in my heart every time I think of Izze, we went thru so much together ... Just us that I don't think I will have another relationship like that with a dog (I could be wrong but I don't think so).

I wish I could say the hurt goes away but it doesn't ... You just "get used" to it.

Been trying to keep myself busy and out of the house, so have been quiet, but have been watching this thread.

I just wanted to take a moment and mention, again, how thankful I am for you all. Thank you so much. So, so much. The support and the messages and just the replies in this thread have been... overwhelming to say the least. I've gone through just about every emotion possible in the last two days -- except the feeling of being alone. Everybody has made sure I've never had a moment where I wasnt talking to somebody -- even if I didn't even reply. I felt like people were with me. Like Rosey was loved. Like Rosey will always be remembered throughout many cities, states and even countries. I've been made to feel like Rosey touched lives everywhere, and I feel an odd sense of... pride in that. That my dog -- my one, Amazong dog, was able to reach that many people? I must have done something right :)

Anything, I'm rambling. But thank you. So much. I don't know how to thank you all enough.

Many people have mentioned to me I was lucky that she was able to do so much even when she got old. To that, I say, your dog can too. Don't let age -- a simple number -- dictate what your dog can or cannot do. Keep them active and they'll go a lot longer than you think.

Jessie I am very sorry, I really am. I know I have rubbed some chazzer's fur the wrong way in the past, (maybe yours also, I don't remember) but I want you to know that I know the pain you are feeling & I know how it hurts & I can't convey in text how sorry & sad I am for you.

Run free at the bridge, Rosey free of all the hurt & pain you might hsve been feeling & I hope you & Izze have tons of fun playing together.

I'm not gonna lie.... I've been talking to Jess, but seriously avoiding this thread. Because I don't want it to be real.. But it is :(

It's amazing that you can feel such a loss for a dog miles and miles away that you've never even had the privledge of petting. Or you can feel a hurt for a friend that you've never gotten the chance to actually hug. But that's the great thing about friendships here - you get to know people with common interests, its easy to feel close to someone with similar passions or stay up late taking about non-sense blah blah blah that for some reason means a lot to you and you friend makes you feel better :p (lol poor Jess)

I read over the thread and couldnt help but feel a little nogalistic with you Jess. Rosey has touched so many lives, across countries even. That's amazing! So while the rest of us could not possible compare to to the loss you're feeling, though many of us have our own losses, and we cant be there for you in person like I'd like to be ... just know that we care for you deeply and we're here for you!!!

Rest in peace Rosey <3 find Nikki and feel free to be on patrol with the ferret police lol and keep an eye on Murtagh and Rascal especially because those two I'm sure are trouble :)

I would have posted sooner but I have no idea what to say. I'm not good with these.

I'm so sorry. Losing a loved one is so extremely difficult. And 16 years is a long time to have a best friend. I hope you find it easier to celebrate her life rather than mourn her death. That was definitely a difficult path for me to take when my grandmother died. (I'm still dealing roughly with it and it's been 6 months.)

Rosey is a beautiful dog. She is easily my top 5 favorite breeds; whatever she is. :)

(And I hope all of us can age that gracefully. Talk about a cougar! ;) )

I'm just seeing this. I'm so sorry, Jess... I don't even know what to say. You know I loved her. And you're right, she touched people all over the world. And she had a beautiful life. Run free, girl.

I know I already posted in here.. but I cannot stop thinking about this dog and how sudden this loss was. Even though Rosey was aging, I don't think any of us thought she would ever be gone.

Jess, Godspeed in healing for you, and your signature is beautiful. Run free, Rosey.

I'm just so sorry! :( Knowing they're aging doesn't make accepting they won't be around forever any easier. I'm glad she got to have so much fun with you.

I was away all weekend and just saw this. My heart is breaking. I know words do absolutely nothing right now, but my heart goes out to you. Rosey was the best and will be greatly missed.
