Jack the Dalmation

    Abbey's buddy Jack the Dalmation died this morning. He was 16 years old and a good dog. She always rushed to see him when he was outside, and he always perked up whenever Abbey was around. He was a quiet well mannered fella but his "dad" says in his younger days he chewed up a queen sized mattress, all the sofa cushions, and the J pipe under the bathroom sink. We'll miss him.

    I'm so sorry for her (and your) loss. It sounds like Abbey made his last years more enjoyable. I'm sure he's chewing up mattresses, etc. and acting like a pup on the other side…My thoughts are with his "dad", you and Abbey.

    So sorry for your loss Lenora. You and Jack are lucky to have 16 years together. Keep happy thoughts and memories of him when you feel sad.

    I am so sorry for your loss. I know how badly that can hurt. I have to concentrate on my current furbaby to keep from bawling over the one I lost last november. Good luck to you.

    I so sorry for your loss. It is never easy losing one of our beloved pets. If you are on Reddit, there is a subreddit where you can request portraits of your pets that have passed on. Maybe you can have one created with both of your beloved Basenjis. https://www.reddit.com/r/RainbowBridgeBabies/comments/b21pu0/how_to_request_and_about_us/

    My brother in law gave me a plaque that says: "It came to me that every time I lose a dog they take a piece of my heart with them, and every new dog who comes into my life gifts me with a piece of their heart. If I live long enough all the components of my heart will be dog, and I will become as generous and loving as they are." I am sorry for your loss.

    I am SO sorry to hear of the passing of your Sweet Cosmo. I know the hole she leaves in your heart, but she left knowing that she was loved as much as she could be loved and I am sure she loved you the same! I feel confident that we will be reunited with our dear Basenjis one day. Sending love and prayers for both of you.

    Hi Kira I haven't been here in a long time. I actually recently had twin girls. I came here "looking" for you to see how Jack was doing with Aiden. I had so many questions to ask and I found this instead. My heart broke & the tears were overwhelming to see what happened to little Jack. I'm SOOOO incredibly sorry for your loss. It sounds like it was an impossible situation with not many options. I'm so sorry Aiden lost his little pal too. My husband sometimes thinks about how our girls will be so sad when our dogs have to cross over. It's all they'll ever know. HUGS TO YOU from one B-mommy to another!! Here's to you Capt. Jack may your little B spirit live on & I hope you have big fields to run & play up there :)
