Letting go is proving the love we have for our animals. Your Peanut is happily romping around again. As others have said, you WILL meet up again. My condolences.

Run free Peanut, no one can take your place. Especially one that sounds like a heart dog

**THE LAST GOODBYES

As you hold them in your arms
And say your last goodbyes
Look close into the fading light
that flickers in their eyes.

They are not afraid
because they know when a sparrow falls
she falls into the hands of God
all creatures great and small

Remember when you found your pet
abandoned, frightened, so alone
shivering at your side you gave comfort
and shared the warmth of your home

As the years passed, they were with you
through every joy and sorrow
Always at your side until one day you knew
there would be no more tomorrows

You sigh and think
never again will I give my heart
it hurts too much to grieve
when you have to part

But there are so many animals
that have no place to go
who are longing for someone just like you
to love and call their own

They don't live as long as humans do
this too is a part of God's plan
for animals are God's angels
to be there for you when he can't

God's gift is that you can love many
when your pets has time for only one
you can give love and happiness to the strays…
who without you would have none

So lay your friends to rest, lift up your hearts
dry your tears, for it is told
death is but a passage into the hands of God,
through the gates of gold

Somewhere others need you
in shelters, or wandering the streets
they want nothing more from life
than to lay down at your feet

It is time to give another life
the love only you can give
we are the caretakers of God's creatures
for not to love...is not to live
