Re: I'm sad


Cyndi, I am so sorry for your loss. Getting a new Rott is a good idea; it
will be lucky to have a home with you, and it will also help ease your
grief. Since my Akita, Cody, died a couple of months ago, it has been a
relief to be able to hug Max (my Norwegian Elkhound) now and again. I will
always miss the poor sweet Cody, but Max makes it easier.
